Best Underwater Lights for 2021 G23

[Nautique_MN]

Hi All -

I have a 2021 G23 that is pre-wired for underwater lights, but that option was not part of the factory build. I would like to add them and am curious on recommendations for the best aftermarket lights to add.

I would like to add bright, multi-color lights that work with the existing wiring/power availability and can be operated from the LINC Panoray screen (on/off and color change, if possible). I would prefer to control everything from the LINC touchscreen and not have to deal with mounting a separate controller somewhere or use a remote, etc.

Two of the recommendations I have gotten from local dealers are the Ocean LED Sport S3166s and the Shadowcaster SCR 24's

I would appreciate any thoughts or recos anyone has on the best option(s). Thanks.

I am not familiar with the LINC interface, but I have used Shadow Caster underwater lights exclusively and they are the best quality available imo, and very intense. Of course certain colors penetrate water better than others, and the clarity/color of the water can affect any light. I currently have 6 SCM-CC 10's in a custom light bar that I run through a SImrad on my 2008 230 and they are phenomenal! Unlimited light patterns, and I have each two lights assigned to 'zones' in their controller so I can have different 'themes', if you will. (Red, white and blue) Red and green) etc. They are made in the Tampa Bay area of Florida/USA

Hey shag, where is the picture of that? Gotta see it man...

These are terrible photos and dont really do it justice - but you get the idea.

I removed the step as its not really functional the way id like it to be (my error in design, I wanted it to be a comfortable seat while hanging out but i didn’t design it long enough. It was removable with SS pins so NBD)

ill try again later

There are lots of good ones. Liquid Lumens are outstanding. None are even remotely inexpensive.

Has anyone swapped out the factory UW lights with aftermarket AND had success without rewiring or drilling? Had my G25 in the shop for winterizing and they quoted ~$1,500 for new lights...even the tech said he suggested aftermarket since the Nautique lights are crazy expensive for what you get.
