    Anybody have any nav light reccomendations for my simple skiff? I want to keep it simple as well. I don't see a good way to run wires to the bow even though I do have a batt in the boat. All thoughts appreciated.

    If you can post more pics it will help. You don't have to have the nave lights all the way at the bow, mine are on my console. You can put a port right on top of yours, just make sure the anchor light is 1 meter higher when deployed.

    The "rub rail" on my skiff is a piece of angle alum. I guess I could run the wire under that? Thanks for the ideas guys.

    You can use silicone caulking to adhere them to the underside of the rolled gunnel.

    Another way is to take out every other rivet on the rub rail and reinstall with a zip tie that has the o ring anchor point on the end. Thread it onto the rivet and pop the rivet. Then zip tie the wires.
