The Family Pontoon boat (The Bennington) is getting some love. Stereo LED's & all! The Family love's the underwater light's and LED's on my boat and the keeps asking "when are you going to hook the pontoon boat up".
SO here we go! I had to tow the boat 2hr's to get home and then down to my Buddy's shop in Salinas 1:45 min's more, to do the Fab and Welding. It's hard to find a shop big enough to fit a boat this size in their shop. Most fab shop's don't have the ability to weld or want to move welding equipment out into a parking lot ect, So you got to find a place big enough where you can bring it in.
I had some Aluminum bar left over from the first light bar install seen here:

We decided that we could build another bar and weld it directley to the pontoons them self.
We welded the bar about 1 -2 inches below the water line. Because the boat sits transom heavy there was no need to angle the lights into the water. I had taken some measurements last summer time when the boat was in the water to see where and how the lights would sit.
Im super happy with the Shadow casters on my boat they haven't missed a beat and seem just a bit brighter than most everything I have seen, But keep in mind most of the boats I have seen only have 2 high powerd transom lights where my boat has 3 so it may not have been a even comp. Be that as it may it was a easy choice to do the same thing with the Bennington.
here are some pic's in progress.
