Stereo equipment in boat
I would say very important. Speakers won't last long at all. I put a regular
car stereo in the pilothouse of my trawler. VERY protected from the weather, and it still crapped out after about 18 months. I think it's just the humid air/environment that gets to it. Probably in my case a bit of salt air, but I'm normally in brackish water. I'd stick with marine stuff. I especially like my Bose box speakers outside! -- Keith __ "There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither one works." - Will Rogers "somebody" wrote in message ... OK - this may be a no brainer but I have to ask. Exactly how vital is it to use marine grade equipment when installing a stereo in a boat? I realize that if water gets in the head unit it would probably fry but if I protected it from that somehow, could I safely install the old car stereo and speakers I have sitting in my closet in my fishing boat? I'm half a country away from any salt water so that won't be a concern. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx! |
