If you look on YouTube they have several videos of kayaks with speakers installed.

I just recently ordered my lights..i got green 5050 leds. a 5m (about 16ft) waterproof strand of 300 lights was only $18 off ebay. patt those lights are nice but do you think they will be a little blinding at night?? i was planning on putting mine on the outside of my yak

They make a small 12volt battery just like those 6volt ones. It's the size of two 6volts side by side. Look at academy by the deer feeders and motion decoys.

I saw on YouTube last night where a guy bought a battery pack from somewhere like radio shack that holds AA batteries and was running his lights with that and he said he should get around 100hrs from it...... on the being blinded part I asw they make water proof dimmer switches for LEDs if needed.

the leds work great and I was a litle worried about blinding me but they dont and I have a 12v from the little cheap chinese fourwheelers and with my speaker and leds goin the leds drop the voltage down a good bit but I dont jam it while fishing.so it wont be a problem

Lookin good Patt! I like the customizations you've done. I'll be interested in seeing more pics of your progress as you install the outside lights. A short vid when it's done showing all the lights and jams on would be very cool!
