Boat rig / lights for bowfishing?

What do you guys use for bowfishing around here?
I'm looking for a few lights that I can run cheaply for a few hours at a time. Do I absolutely need a generator? We've got a 15' bateau that I'd like to rig up, and there isn't a ton of space in there. Is there anything else I might need on the boat specifically for when I bowfish?

We have 10 of these: mounted on a PVC rig. You NEED a generator, no way you can run them on batteries for that long
we use a 16' Go-Devil, pretty much the same as your bateau. You can work it with 3 people, 1 generator, a fish icechest, and a drink ice chest

Thanks myLSUhat, good to know. With a generator needed I'm going to have to do some magic on the hobby budget to make this happen. Or tell her, "remember during the hurricane power outages how we wanted a generator? Happy hurricane season baby!"
Yeeeeeeah, that's how I'll sell it.

Single men, pay attention: "I bought it for US!" - It's one of the all-time classic tactics. And for god's sake, let her buy shoes; how ELSE are you going to justify all the fishing rods and guns???

There's definitely a go-devil in my future within the next year or so. I plan trying to rig it up (removably) for bow fishing, though it will mainly be used for frogs, hunting, and an extra fishing boat.
