Re: Stereo Radio System (Center Console)
I bought the poly planar cd unit. Works fine, has a good warranty, but most important in a center console boat is the remote that can be used with the stereo. Mounted the radio in the T-top and I use the dash mounted hardwired remote. Most good marine stereos now offer a good remote control that can be mounted near the driver. I tried 3 cheaper "car" stereos before, but all failed due to salt/corrosion, and 2 were even mounted in the cabin. As far as speakers, just removed a set of $100 JBL's and installed 4 pioneers with 1000 watt amp. Check out the new stereo that can play DVD's by interfacing video signal with new color "fish finders". That's a little too much for a "fishin' boat".
