A system for illuminating a class of watersport boards. The system includes a light on the top of the board and a light-transmitting fin on the underside of the board. The board-top light and the light-transmitting fin are fastened together with fasteners that pass through the board. The board-top light contains a battery and energizes the light-transmitting fin through an energy-coupling. Electrically conductive paths and translucent channels are both discussed as energy couplings. An inductive charging connector is provided for charging the battery. Remaining service-time is reported to a user based on battery charge. Additional sensors, such as light sensors, and a microcontroller allow the unit to turn on automatically when ambient light falls below a programmed threshold.14
