Abstract
An LED lighting system for watercraft, including LED lighting assemblies inserted into tubular members and inserted within rub rails mounted along the gunwale or wall of the hull, along the starboard and port sides, bow and stern. The LED lighting assembly can include ultraviolet LEDS for night fishing, white-light LEDs, a red LED port-running light, and a green LED starboard-running light. The string of LED lights can be pre-assembled into conventional insert tubing, and inserted into the cavities of the rub rail to emit the desired LED light from within the rub rail.
