How many of you guys have a radio in the boat? I'm thinking about getting one and was looking for suggestions on make/model of unit and speakers. Thanks guys

I built a small stereo box with the head unit/speakers/antennae all mounted in it

It fits under the passenger console and plugs into my cigarette lighter

No holes in the glass and nothing is perminant

I have a Sonic Hub Satelite Radio. Did not use the Lowrance speakers.

It was very hard to bring myself to do it but I'm glad I did!

I didn't buy my boat strictly for fishing either though .. We also use it in the summer for pleasure.

Nope - no desire to.


In memory of my childhood friend Dan Sterling, who taught me at an early age how to catch bream with a hand-line, and who unknowingly hooked me on fishing for life.

Jensen JMS7010. Does just about anything you need/want but I got it mostly for the Sirius satellite.

I have a Clarion AM/FM radio with CD. As above, I use for my Sirius plug and play radio. Some of those Sirius channels help me bear down when I need to.

I thought everybody wore those things in their ears to listen to their music.

Head phone in one ear if the fishing is slow enough that I need music or for long runs. I never put them in both ears though because I like to hear what's going on around me

Well, sort of but not like your thinking of. Portable Am/FM/Weather Radio. Carry primarily for weather alerts. I don't want to be caught in the path of a coming storm and while I'm fishing, if I want news or music (usually fish alone). Works great. NO HOLES IN THE BOAT and no unnecessary drain on the battery.
