    Question Hydro Wave speaker.

    Looking for experience or thoughts about epoxying the speaker to inside of fiberglass boat hull.
    I know some people have done it.

    I wouldn't do it. When the speaker goes out its gona be a pain to get out. Iv had to remove a transducer once... what a pain. Thats just my opinion

    Triton 19 XS Elite, 225 Mercury Pro XS, Minn Kota Ultrex 112, Hydrowave H2, Twin 8' Power Pole Blades, Power Pole CHARGE, Lowrance HDS 12 and 16 at console, Lowrance HDS 9, Garmin LiveScope at bow, Mercmonitor, Rigid Industries Deck lights and other stuff to come that will make me go more broke

    Yes sir I've had a dose of epoxied puck removal in a tight place myself.
    If the speaker goes out I won't be concerned about tearing it up to remove..
    I want to get it off my trolling motor and I've heard they can be mounted in the hull and it will help with sound transmission. Would like to hear some reports but it does not look like many have done this.

    I don't think it would be loud enough. Works much better in the water than in the boat. JMHO

    better in the water, so it can move the water, the hull will only let noise through. transom mount would work for me if i had to much going on on the TM

    Why do you want to move it inside the boat?

    This: one less thing to get hung up in hydrilla or brush.
    I had my last one mounted on the transom and I think it benefited the guy in the back more.
