Sailing gear - head lamps

There are a bunch of headlamps on the market. One of the sailing mags had a good review of this one and it has turned out to be a great headlamp for sailing. The Petzl e+lite with whistle. Check it out on the web for all the whistles and bells...get it....whistle? Anyway, we use these at night on watch and off. For the watch person, it's light weight with many settings. I was able to check the sails with mine in red mode without ruining my night vision. The off watch person can locate items below without turning on main lights and thus ruining the watches vision. Good stuff. A must for us.
Thanks Mom and Dad, we have put these handy Xmas gifts to work!
