The head unit mounts out of the way as you rarely need to access it. I don't plan on using the CD feature much if at all. In this case I mounted it in the cockpit locker and the controls were mounted in the old hole for the engine vent. Just under the traveller and behind the tiller.</span><br />

I have a slotted bracket attached to the pushpit and the shelf has two bolts that slip through the bracket and a set of wingnuts to hold them tight. The top of the speaker shelf makes a great spot to grill or fish from.<br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /><br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />Wires are run through a stern vent and I use a trailer plug to make it easily removable.<br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /></span><br />
