Got the controller in last night and the gain adjusted. The controller comes with a black plastic bezel that it snaps into for a flush installation, but in order to use the bezel, you'd have to hack a hole in the hull. No way. So I went down to Tap Plastics and bought a little scrap of red acrylic and some cement, and made up a little surround for the controller. After the cement cured, I wet sanded and buffed it and attached it to the hull with double sided tape. I think it looks pretty good and definitely better than cutting a hole in the dash.
Chased down a few rattles from things buzzing in the hull when the bass hits. Very happy with the sound quality and volume.
Here is the plastic do-dad that I made



...and with the controller in it



...and all mounted.








Finished!
 
It is. It should be in the garage. We are in the process of building a shop addition, so right now the garage is full of huge woodworking and metalworking tools that will eventually go in the shop. No room in the garage, so I rolled the ski into our daylight basement for the winter.
Next year it will be in the garage.
Yes, I have a very patient and understanding wife.

Loving this thread. Very clean install. I really like your taste in components.

I haven't attempted a boat/ski install yet. Sold my last car with an install and can't quite bring myself to sell the components. Some rare kit.

As mentioned before - second battery maybe? Not sure what the charge output of your ski is. This is what's always put me off boat installs. I run outboards and they don't have much punch in the charging area :/

I just can't see a couple of W7's in my ski :p
