What he said... and put just enough fuel to go out onto the water 100 ft and back. Go to far and, for some reason, the tv quits workin' Or double your funtime, run a 200ft extension cord!

I am also thinking of putting 2 20" lcd's in my Outlaw. I was just going to use a power inverter on mine, but I am also concerned about the screens when the boat is coming back to earth..... Maybe a rubber mounting system???

have a 17" lcd in mine mounted permanently no problems with banging around , we have a dvd player also but no shore power in boat . we only use it when tied up at the marina so i use a regular heavy gauge cord with an adapter to the shore power outlet and have a power stip that we plug everything into mounted under the galley cabinet

I also have been thinking about an lcd tv in my 357. I have searched the threads for any info. I want a 12 volt tv but dont want to pay $500 for a 15" tv. It seems some people have had luck hard wiring 12 volt tvs into there boats and some people cant get them to work. From what I can tell from the postings the 12 volt tv needs only 3 volts to run any more and the tv will not work . As we all know are boats run on a 12 volt system. The tvs also would like a regulating power supply. I think I my have found the answer.
