When Kate and I bought our boat it had a pretty janky sound system on it. There were speakers that were mounted to the t-Tops with bungy cords and the wiring for it was duct taped down the rails. The sound system sounded decent but was really trashy looking. couldn’t have it. In the console there was the stereo system that took up a bunch of the space and the lettering on the control knobs were worn off. it was big and cumbersome. If I had to rate the whole set-up i’d have given it a 2 on a scale from 1-10. it did provide sound but it just looked like shit.
So after we took the boat out of the water last year I knew when we started to work on it that the duct tape had to go.
After researching I was thinking I might get a large bluetooth waterproof speaker and just keep it in the console but when searching waterproof bluetooth speakers I came across these 6.5 inch marine bluetooth speakers that would run off our cell phones wirelessly. It paired immediately as soon as we fired them up with my cell phone and then Joey Ciolino tried and he immediately paired up too!
Really sweet way to get tuns on your boat for next to nothing and actually have better options for listening to music than an old school boat stereo head unit.
They’re $65 on Amazon Link to Purchase and Reviews Here
So we took out the head unit (stereo part) and installed these which only require power and they sound awesome!
