I've been following the trend but don't have any.
QUESTION (as I just had the thought): if you want red why not hang/use a pair of LED, submersible trailer lights?. Much cheaper to experiment? How much water depth would the light need to penetrate and does the color red do anything?

Red light gets absorbed the quickest. Violet the longest. (in seawater). I don't want to hang anything overboard.
Most of the colors are white, blue and green. I don't think I have seen a red light.
When the rooster tail is blue underway, it looks really cool.
LED's give a lot of light (lumens) for the amperage. Was probably going to go green and/or blue But at a grand a pop I might do it in stages over time.

Oh, so you want something pleasing to the human eye and nothing to do with attracting bait and fish?  |

 ...both actually. They do attract bait when adrift. |

Ocean has the option of having the wire come out the top of the light, as oppose to the back. So you could wire through transom above waterline, and still mount flush to transom below waterline.
We also discussed some here... http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripert...5455-leds.html |
