I know it's a little early in the season and too cold to think about night
sailing. However, I saw this waterproof running light
set(http://www.tek-tite.com/Specialty/specialty.html) and it made me think
of night sailing. That's right, for about $55 you too can have your own
running lights on your sailboard.

I prefer to use a cheap chem-light stick for my annual full moon session at
Bethany Reservoir in the summer. I like night sessions there because it is
warm, windy, and flat without any boat traffic. I guess this setup could be
for people who sail at night around other traffic and for equipment junkies
with a little money to throw around.

Gregg.
