Installing a radio

[T_Herrod]

Sorry if i get a bit long winded with this. My wife wants a radio put in our boat so she can listen to music while fishing. The boat in question never had a radio or speakers and according to G3 it was never sold with one. So i am going to have to build something to put the radio and speakers in so i'm not putting a bunch of holes in the boat. I was wondering if any of you have done this and if you have would you be so kind as to share some pictures of what you did so i have some idea of where to start. In the past my wife would just bring her ipod and listen to the music through ear buds. That worked just fine until she started singing along. Thanks in advance for any ideas/photo's.

Check this out... several manufacturers make an enclosure like this to add a stereo......WC400 - Stereo Weather Enclosure | PolyPlanar Waterproof Marine Audio Systems

Also if you go with a non-CD player unit it is not as deep as those with the CD player. Most allow connecting to iPods and other sources or have a slot for an SD card.

That stereo will fit just fine in the enclosure I linked to above....
