Ben and MP install 12 Lumitec underwater lights on the hull of their wooden boat, Yabá, while it remains in the shipyard.17:57 The installation includes eight Lumitec SeaBlaze Mini lights along the midsection and four Lumitec SeaBlaze Quattro lights positioned at the bow and stern.20:16 The crew marks the hull to ensure each light sits on a single plank, avoiding structural frames and seams.5:06 They drill pilot holes to verify internal clearance near fuel tanks before boring larger holes for the wiring and flush-mounting the fixtures with Sikaflex sealant.11:44 The wiring is split into three separate circuits—bow, midship, and stern—to allow for independent operation during night diving or navigating into anchorages.24:20 The project concludes with a successful electrical test, confirming the brightness of the lights before the boat launches.23:02 Installing underwater lights while the vessel is on the hard prevents the need for future underwater drilling or hull penetrations.25:46
