For sea water temperature monitoring one of these work fine.

Tape the sensor to the rubber hose on an intake as low as possible. Wrap some insulation around the lot and tape well. Works perfectly on an engine intake with the engine running but will work OK with it off too just not so immediate a change in temperature.
You can compare with a thermometer in the water and there will be a variation of probably one degree, this does not matter as it's the change your looking for.

You are a master of Ebay Ramona. Gee you find some good stuff there.

Can you find me a light sensitive switch for use on my anchor light?? Jaycar has one but it is a bit bulky and costs about $25.

Hi Cisco
Velleman supply a kit for a light sensitive relay/switch ,about $20.00 .I have one it works really well and is easy to put together. Kit is number MK125

Cheers
Al

Thanks Al. I found these and I am going to buy 10 of them. Some as gifts for friends and the others as spares.

thanks to cisco's original post

i immediately ordered the gme radio , c.h.smith marine $85 no speakers
and cheap dipole antenna

arrived within 48 hrs and installed immediately
i already had bulkhead speakers in cockpit and cabin with a switch to select either of them
and a place to mount the radio
too easy

tested really well aux , am , fm , lw , sw and even vhf

yesterday used it on my sail down to queenscliff to see the exit of the m2d and westcoaster

thanks cisco the radio performed above my expectation
so that was my xmas present

ps I was wondering about splitter for antenna but read about some of the issues that can be had using them so opted for separate antenna (simple dipole)
surprised the reception of vhf was so good and over fair distance with coastal complications

For those people looking for an automatic sensor for making an anchor light.
