*shrug* are you looking for a "turret mounted" spot light; because Wal-Mart, Target, and a few decent outdoors stores carry a Million-candlepower hand held rechargable spotlight that will do the job quite nicely. Mine, when fully charged, burns so hot, I can stand upstairs, shine my dad sleeping on the couch on his leg and he wakes up and says "WTF man my leg is burnin'" Anyhow.. Just a suggestion.

J.J. LOL!!! 
It only takes once out in the middle of "now where" loosing your lights to figure you you better have a back up plan. Yea, I run bow mounted lights, a spot light, and keep a spare spot light. Motoring around in complete darkness trying to figure out where you are, where you are going and what is ahead of you sucks!!!

Get a hard hat light. Lights mounted on the front of your boat seldom shine where you want them to.

I went with the GoLight and put the control on my console. No glare in the boat and can adjust the light where ever I need it at my finger tips.

I put a ram mount spotlight on my grab rail. it is adjustable and uses the ram mount ball so it can be removed. For a lot less $ there is one by primos for atv's also found at cabelas that I would like to try with a higher output. ...I found by looking at atv/utv spotlights I had a wider selection for the same purpose

For fixed lights go to tractor supply and pick up one high beam and one flood. It will give you both spectrum's. As far as go light....wait until a good freeze and a little water gets on the housing.....I've seen two go-lights completely strip the gears because they were frozen and the worst part...go-light won't warranty. But hey, as long as you don't hunt when it's cold...I guess you'll be o.k.....yea right!
