Keith,
On the drivers side of the cockpit ( under dash ) you should be able to put a sub there also. First look from the cabin and check from under the dash to make sure there are no wires that need to be tie wrapped out of the way. You can't mount them too close to the cockpit sole though. Theres only around 4" to the side of the hull there.

Re: Just Signed Up! Y2k Me Too!
OK, got it, thanks Rick! I'm going to mount them as high as possible, probably 2-4" below the under dash opening. I'm building my interior now with custom cabinetry for the stereo and amp. I'm guessing I'll only add about 100# total, but I'll keep you posted - I'll prob soon start a new thread with work in progress pics for all to see.....

Rick,
Have you mentioned to John that I prefer the sliding window that you have come up with?

Gary,
Yeah I mentioned it. I told him you found it online at a window manufacturer. His response was " tell him to order it". Gary, I'll contact the company and get a price. We can take it from there, OK.

Re: Just Signed Up! Y2k Me Too!
Your not kidding... My old boat is being picked up on friday...sniff...sniff...so I have to look forward to something...Yesterdays warm temperatures also feed the itch..
Rick I got in touch with American Marine windows. He felt that that type of window in a 9x14 size would be impracticle. Yealding a glass opening of approx 6x12 glass area, this being said the glass would only slide maybe 4" (not alot)... If he mitered the corners as opposed to the 3" radius corners youd pick up a bit more slide travel. It seems the tracks are quite substantial for such a small window(1" on the top and sides, 2" on the bottom)
