I'm going wild on purchases and want to get LED replacement bulbs for my deck-level navigation bulbs and the anchor light bulb.
I seem to recall that different socket types are used in different locations and, before I spend a lot on replacements, want to be sure that I am getting the correct bulb types. So far it seems that there are BAY15D, BA15D and BA15S bulbs to choose from.
Does anyone know which ones are used as factory standard on Jeanneaus?

Is this for the OLD boat? or did you manage to find a new one that I missed?
As far as bulbs go, don't know! other than there is a really dim one tween my ears!

No, I still have my "old" boat, but as a boat owner am constantly fixing and upgrading things, even if that money is going to go down the drain when I sell it. I almost clicked for an online purchase of a "Lopolight" but realized that I should do that on the new boat, not the old Jeanneau USA has some smoking deal on new boats - a new 54DS that is cheaper than a 2-year old!

Sounds like a way to go, ie new. Remember depedning upon "WHOM" you buy the used boat from vs the new one, the older one may come with some items, such as anchor and chain, upgraded electronics etc. Not saying ALL older boats are deals etc.
i just wish the local dealer had a better deal on the new SF3200 than they do. Wife wishes the interior looked a bit nicer than it looks in photos.
There are not any local 54DS's for sale from what I can tell at local dealer, they do have 3 49i's, 2 performance models, one std.

I was comparing all the equipment in the used boats and the new one still was a better deal, this is a delivered-but-not-commissioned boat where the original purchaser lost his/her financing and I am sure that the dealer really wants to get rid of the boat and any discounts I get are probably going to be charged to the original orderer.
The 54DS is incredibly tempting...

Give it a shot, I saw in a sail mag that Jeanneau sold 3 54DS's during the Annapolis show, along with about 6 others of smaller sizes, so the show was a success to a degree from what I can tell. At least USA pres Paul Fenn was happy.
Let us know what happens, not that you will not I am sure!
