Boat lighting

UNDERWATER OUTDOOR LIGHTING

LED underwater lights for boats are lighting devices used to illuminate the seabed when diving or fishing, or simply at night. They are often mounted on boats to illuminate coral reefs and other marine life. Underwater LED lights can be more efficient and long-lasting than traditional lights, consuming less energy and lasting longer. They can also produce different lighting colors to enhance the experience, such as switching from red to blue LED light.

Underwater lights can be used for many activities. They can be used to illuminate the seabed when fishing, to better see the fish. They can also be used to set the mood for on-board parties, synchronizing lighting with music to create spectacular visual effects. Underwater lights can be remotely controlled to change color and brightness according to the user's preferences.

DECK LIGHTING

Deck lights are designed to illuminate the entire boat and its immediate surroundings (spotlight, etc.).

They can be mounted on the sides of the boat, above deck or in other strategic locations to provide maximum visibility. Deck floodlights can be used to illuminate access routes, work areas or relaxation areas on board. They can also be used to illuminate on-board equipment, such as swim ladders or inflatable tenders. Floodlights can be manual, automatic or motorized.

Deck lights are generally made from water- and weather-resistant materials, to guarantee reliable use in all circumstances. For example, lamps with stainless steel housings and special seals for outdoor installation are common.

LED bulbs are widely used for outdoor lighting, such as an LED light bar, but a halogen lamp is preferable for research at sea, as the power of halogen light is greater and enables you to see further

INTERIOR LIGHTING

Interior lighting in cabins and bedrooms can be used to illuminate living spaces on board, either as a lamp, an articulated LED spotlight or wall light, or as a ceiling light.

There are many ways to choose interior lighting for a boat. The first thing to do is to choose light sources that are suitable for a boat's damp environment. Incandescent bulbs and fluorescent lamps are not recommended for a boat, as they can be sensitive to humidity.

LED bulbs, spotlights and strip lights are ideal, as they are more resistant to humidity and consume less energy.

In fact, LED lighting has an estimated lifespan of 20,000 hours, compared with 1,000 for a halogen bulb, for example. The price of an LED bulb is also fairly low. LEDs can come in a range of colors (cool white, warm white, RGB...) to give the cabin a special ambience, and the intensity can be controlled, depending on the type of LED and switch. This range of lighting is perfectly suited to boat lighting (interior, but also exterior). So choose your interior ceiling light, wall light, spotlight or LED courtesy lamp according to these characteristics.

NAVIGATION LIGHTS AND POSITION

Navigation lights indicate the boat 's position and intentions to other vessels. Anchor lights can also be used to indicate the location of a boat at anchor in a mooring area.

Position lights are used to indicate a boat's position and direction. They are used during navigation to help other vessels find their way and avoid collisions. Position lights are located at the bow, stern and sides of the boat. They can be fixed or moveable.

Signal lights are used to transmit information or messages to other vessels. They can be used to indicate the boat's intention, speed, destination, etc. Signal lights can be fixed or mobile, and can be used alone or in combination with other lights to transmit specific messages.

In short, position lights indicate a boat's position and direction, while signal lights are used to transmit information and messages to other vessels.
