When evenings are dark and chill is running through the saloon it´s nice to have a ship´s lamp down below. Just one oil lamp can make such a big difference to the boating experience, providing both warmth and cozy light.
For our old boat we had a ship´s lamp hanging from the roof. We used that lamp a lot. For our Linjett 33 I’m looking for something that we can put on the table instead, something we can move around down below and maybe even bring out to the cockpit.
So far the most interesting ship´s lamp I´ve found is from Watski.se. It´s a model they call ‘Oljelampa Galley Mässing‘ or in English ‘Oillamp Galley Brass‘. The model is available in either brass or stailess steel, I prefer the brass version. According to the specifications it´s 170 mm wide by 290 mm high.
I think the ship´s lamp from Watski.se would fit well into the saloon of our Linjett 33. There´s no hurry buying anything yet, I will keep looking, but at least I´ve found an interesting starting point.
