[QUOTE="kerpit, post: 8379289, member: 631730"] I'm only looking at subs with rubber surrounds for the moisture/uv reasons. My alpine type r lasted 10 years in the last boat. Took it apart last night and the aluminum cage was corroded. Bead blasted/paints and she's back in business! I still want something new and better than that old type r. As you can see in the picture of the port side there is no "under the dash". It's fiberglassed and a storage compartment directly in front of port and starboard. I cut holes and have a pair of massive audio ck6 components mounted there but no way will I cut a 12" hole!!! My old boat had the space under the dash like you are talking. I talked to parts express and they said that one ported enclosure will be about the same spl as two sealed. I don't think I can pull off two ported boxes in that space. Now that I'm going to do ported but still need to be conscious about space, what sub would you recommend? [/QUOTE]
