Jet Ski Stern Light

Thanks all! I think I have something figured out without drilling or mounting anything permanent using Ram Mounts.

The bow red & green were easy as simple clip on battery lights work there. The stern was a different story as the pole height and rocking and rolling of the PWC come into play. I found an adjustable telescoping battery stern light on Amazon and utilizing certain Ram Mounts attached to the grab bar behind the seat I think will work out fine without having to drill or mount anything permanent.

Work in progress!

Dan, what's your end goal? Is it just to be out after dusk or at all times?

I gotta say, it would have to be pretty calm for me to be out on the lake after dark on a PWC.

My end goal is to be prepared if caught out after dark.

We do a lot of sunset cruises, dinner rides etc, etc, and sometimes things take longer than anticipated. Also, if calm, I may go out during a full moon night for a ride on the ski. This isn’t my first jet ski and I have no problem whatsoever navigating at night and find it rather enjoyable during the weeknight when the weekend warriors have all left…

Gotcha. There are certainly some tranquil nights out there, for sure!
