Same idea different location
Our hunter has a drawer like compartment on the starboard side, in front of the cabin set. We cut an opening in the side of this compartment and installed a car stereo with 10 cd changer. The top of the compartment, a wood drop top with finger hole, keeps all of the equipment out of site. The stereo came with a remote, so that we can change CD's or radio stations from the cockpit.We mounted BOSE outdoor speakers, with "L" brackets, on the bulkhead wall and then covered the exposed screw heads, seen from inside the V-berth, with a strip of teak wood.We also mounted 4 1/2 round speakers down at foot level, on either side of the helmsman seat.The remote is the best part about the whole setup.
