Along this line, I've wondered about installing waterproof speakers (perhaps
with a mylar overlay) in the aft cockpit area, either on the sides of the
seats or in the vertical transom face. This might be a neat way to cover
transom access holes used for installing a ladder, beefing up the motor
mounts, etc.

Has anyone tried this?
