I finally got the interior almost 90% done, just working out the perfect pass. Has anyone tried to rig up some LED's to the swim platform to light the water at night (swimming).

There is something about driniking and swimming (with life vest) out on the water after a good days wakeboarding.

I found several sealed LED units, but wonder about a waterproof way to send the power thru hull.

ideas?

So I take it you want it just under the swim platform? The only thing that I can think of doing would be to put like a clear plastic bubble type of thing at the bottom of your ski lockers, with the bubble protruding (from some kind of hole) in the bottom of your ski lockers below the swim platform. Then put some kind of gasket/seal between this said long and thin bubble (or whatever size you want), tighten it, and then run the power into your ski locker from however you desire. However, if you do not have a skilocker that goes beneath the water line, my idea will not work.
