Obviously all you guys have valid arguments for technology.  I personally prefer to use the technology BEFORE my rides to ensure suitable conditions to enjoyable riding.  But even in the case of getting caught in a localized storm I have both 'run through' them and slowed to a crawl or stopped while in them depending on where I was at at the time.

Now I pose a question.  Do any  of you guys have a dimmer switch for the panel lights on your boats?  I find myself covering the dash with a towel to dampen the light from the control panel and hence enhance night vision.  I have wondered for years why no manufacturer has done such, or even gone to red lighting so as not to affect night vision.  Seems like a no brainer to me.
