I was wondering if anyone has turned their stock morse docking lights from a sealed beam light bulb to an H.I.D. bulb. looking to experiment with trying a few things, seeing if anyone has tackled this project so I know if I'm headed in the right direction

In the Long Distance Motorcycle community, where a lot of riding happens after dark, LED lights have replaced HID, with very good reason. The best lights seem to be made by Clearwater or Rigid. But, I have to ask, why would you want that kind of illumination for docking lights? You are not supposed to be using them as head lights.

thanks I will look into them! more for just show, I just got done installing blue led lights in the cockpit and cabin, next is the underwater lights and then I started thinking about H.I.D.'s for the docking lights would look nice haha

Also you are dealing with water.... Back when HID's were the shizzle, I built a setup for a racebike and managed to zap myself... holy moly those things pack a punch!

I now have Rigid's Docking lights on 2 of our boats, they are by far the brightest most usable on the market.
