[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8359671, member: 576029"] howdy. what boat? what motor? what alternator? the challenge with some boats is an outboard motor has a tiny alt that won't support an audio system. cabin cruizers with a proper V8 can have a decent alt available. i've put solar panels on boats to supplement the outboard motor alt and allow charging without shore power. here's a cabin cruizer i did with Powerbass speakers and amp [IMG]http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e128/phat_funky_beats/boat%20systems/RandysBoatInstall015.jpg[/IMG] Kenwood headunit and Powerbass ASA 600.4 amp. owner had the option of covering the amp wiring with a beauty panel, but opted for accessible wiring. this could be dressed-up nicer.
