I wouldn't run them on one engine. The engine is operating in an overloaded situation (being it's propped based on both engines). 12v71TIs will...
Malcolm Elliot is Florida Nautical. But I've done over 100 surveys with him over the years and he's always top notch and knows darn near everything.
Florida Nautical surveyors and Matt Jones are 2 good ones.

I've had great luck with scandvik. The 10 watt LED replacements are as bright as 20 watt halogen. I did 65 bulbs 2 years ago on a yacht where...
