Good one. Thanks. I think I'd be disconnecting the batteries if
showing a boat.

That would be fine on a small, open boat but it would create some
safety concerns on larger craft with enclosed compartments. People do
need to be able to see when touring through a vessel, and not all boats
have AC as well as DC lighting.

Besides, at out show there's a bit of a tradition. On the last day of
our ten day (!) show, when the PA system finally thanks the crowd for
coming and announces the show is over, a large number of boat horns are
sounded in celebration. Tough to do with no battery power.

Good point.
