[Rhodes22-list] LED steaming / foredeck light - thanks

[Robert Skinner]

Thanks to all who so kindly referred me to the Casey book.
I'm ordering it for my library today.  If any of the
other 99 ideas are as useful, it will be worth twice the
price.

LEDs are a lifesaver for big guys like me.  I don't like 
to go up a mast (or take one down) to replace a dead bulb.
It's right up there with under-dash work on my list of 
jobs to avoid.

And minimizing wiring fits in with my "at least two uses 
for every piece of gear" ideal for simplification.  With 
this scheme, there can be an extra wire in place ready to 
use if one of the hot ones craps out.

Good stuff!
