Strip thanks for the info I will take plenty of pictures when I install the A/C.

Thanks Steve

Strip, What was involved in removing the headrest from the front bolster? Tore up my ankle last week at work so I will get pictures as soon as I can get up in the boat. Got to get back to work so I will stop spending money (bored sitting home all day). I ordered new Sony I-Pod receiver, 1pr. of 10" sub's, 2pr. of 8" coaxial, 2pr. of 6.5" coaxial, and additional 500.1 amp all Memphis Marine. Wife wants me to order A/C this week also, talked to Ocean Breeze they said they apply extra solder and bracing to withstand bashing of speedboats. All companies recommended 10,000 BTU

Sorry for rambling pain med. finally wore off and I'm bored
Steve

here some picks of the head rest,ya can see were I cut the plastic to get my arm in there, staples

engine hatch accelerator,CP perf or Eddies,easy to wire in,fused,the factory wire is 14-18 gage and doesn't handle the current on the motor thru the switch at the dash, the new wire/newer model 388's have a 10 gage,I had tore mine apart and regreased the screw shaft and gears,it had a little corrosion in it, it made a difference. the accelerator speed it up a bunch.
