Summer Boating Season

By Brett Marquardt, Sales Manager

With summer boating season in full swing, there is a piece of equipment that everyone should have onboard - the BearTrap® 360 portable light, by Streamlight.

Those of us that have launched or returned our boats back onto the trailer in an unfamiliar, poorly lit or unlit boat ramp know that this stress can ruin a great day on the water (especially true if the entire family is “offering” advice…). No worries, you can leave it to the BearTrap 360 to eliminate some of these issues for you.

The light has several key features that make it a “must have” on any watercraft. The BearTrap 360’s rubberized, rotating body allows it to stand on its own or be used hands-free. Attach, hang, or clamp it almost anywhere. It has built-in heavy-duty springs that provide the light with plenty of gripping power to be clamped on securely so it will stay in place. The BearTrap 360 can also be quickly mounted to any metal surface on your boat, trailer or vehicle using the integrated magnets. These features can eliminate the stress of being in the dark while you launch, re-trailer, secure your boat, or check for weeds and unwanted “hitchhikers” on the boat and motor, in the live well and on the trailer.

The BearTrap 360 is fully rechargeable and has three output levels in both spot and flood modes. You can choose the mode that best fits your task. It runs up to 12.5 hours on a single charge and can be recharged with the AC cord (included) or charged and run continuously with the optional DC cord. The 2,000 lumens of output make it extremely bright, which is useful while navigating through buoys and markers, or just trying to find your destination. The BearTrap 360 stows flat and takes up very little space, eliminating the need for any low cost, bulky, portable lights that you bought for the boat but never seem to work when you need them.

When the fall hunting season comes around, the BearTrap 360 is an outstanding light for your waterfowl boat or skiff, as well. It will be an invaluable tool for remote, undeveloped, back water, launches into lakes, rivers, cattails, or slews. In this application the light can be a reliable safety tool should anything go wrong. If you should require help or assistance, the super bright BearTrap 360 can guide people directly to your location even in the tallest cattails or heaviest cover. The BearTrap 360 can get you in and out of your hunting spots easily and safely.

So check out the Streamlight BearTrap 360! We’re sure you will find it to be one of the best pieces of gear you’ll have in your boat!
