    Christmas Lights for 2021 GS22

    Is there a way to plug in 120v Christmas string lights into the boat? Or are there light options or converters for the 12v cigarette lighter power plug in?

    This can easily be done by purchasing an inverter. You are better off using LED lights to keep the power level manageable. Here is an example:

    DEWALT DXAEPI140 Power Inverter 140W Car Converter: 12V DC to 120V AC Power Outlet with Dual 3.1A USB Ports

      Another option might be using Solar Christmas lights. If you're decorating the boat for a Christmas Parade that might be a better option as they are really cheap and you wouldn't have to worry about buying an expensive inverter.
      If you can't do it in, on, or behind a Nautique..... It just ain't worth doing!

        We are completely unfamiliar with any solar option here in the Pacific Northwest as this time of year there is no such thing as sunshine...

          We are completely unfamiliar with open water at this time of year here in the Minnesota tundra...

            Devo77 They also now make USB-powered Christmas lights. I have no experience with them, but that would probably be an easy option as there are bound to be a USB port or two on your boat.

              For that matter you can also install battery powered Christmas Lights... Amazon, Home Depot, etc... have them.
