I bought a pair of speakers for the cockpit but I don't want to cut circular holes in the fiberglass. The plastic grilles always get kicked in and it looks bad. I got the idea to install them under the Bimini top by fabricating brackets in order to attach them to the stainless steel tubes that support it. I will paint the aluminum brackets white and install them in the spring. I need the Bimini top up to determine the best position. The base of the brackets is offset to one side and they are symmetrical. That gives me more room to play with. I need to make sure that they don't get in the way. The next problem is to wire them up so I can put them away during the week. I want a way of plugging them in. Someone suggested using the connectors from automotive trailer hitches. They are made to take weather. Maybe...we will see.
