Re: Just Signed Up! Y2k Me Too!
I like that window as well...seems larger than the one JC showed me and would allow more light in. He suggested one that was more a porthole size with a fixed window that hinged down(could flop around on the run). when open I'd assume the a similar amount of airflow but I do think this bigger one is better. Please show that to JC and his thoughts are appreciated as well. But as for now I prefer your selection better!

OK Rick - if you can cut a 9x14" hole in that vertical front bulkhead, then I can assume I can instead cut 10" subwoofer holes there too without affecting structural integrity? This seems to be the only plce subs could be mounted securely....

Yeah but you cant have anyone with a metal plate in their head sit in the cabin on that side cause theyll be stuck to that sub....HA!

Keith,
On the port side of the cockpit, in front of the passanger seat, under the dash. There should be aroung 9" clearance for a sub woofer. Poke your head under and look. There's plenty of room. I wouldn't cut the bulkhead for a speaker. Keep it in the cockpit sides, under the dash.

Re: Just Signed Up! Y2k Me Too!
Thanks Rick - I've been (and so have stereo gurus) crawling all over trying to figure a place - the port footwell is ideal, but then are you saying not to do the same cut on the stbd side due to the cut out already there for fuse/helm access? I'd like to put a matched set in, but it may be too much with the exisiting opening. The only other place is in the cockpt liner, nearer the floor close to the seats, in your basic "kickpanel" area, but I'm concerned a sub will just vibrate too much there without a more solid backing. Your thoughts are appreciated! Keep'em coming, I'm about to order components next week or so.....
LOL, OH-Zone - I'll be sure to NOT bring floppy discs or tapes down there, and hopefully they'll be far enough away frommy compass!! HA!

Re: Just Signed Up! Y2k Me Too!
Yeah everyone would be wondering why your going in circles...
krak, wouldnt you think 1 large sub would do the job in front of the passanger? The sides I dont believe would be thick enough....Another thought...though there isnt a lot of storage but could you convert the forward locker/bulkhead and mount a larger piece of starboard or something over the existing door to mount a sub, or if you dont have the porta-potti, down low below the v-berth(not sure on the fiberglass thickness there though)
