Can i fit a sub in rear bench facing forward?
 

My boat is a 1999 Sabah 202. Ive read about all the posts in regards to stereo, speakers, subs. I thought forsure I saw a post were someone had mounted subs under the main seat facing the bow, but I cant find the post again. And without ordering a pair to find out it will fit or not. Ive measured the inside of the box at just over 10in. So has anyone done this?

Yeah I saw that too. Thought they made a custom seat with duel subs. It was in June of this year I think

If I know the post your talking about, in which he built a new custom bench, the subs were rear facing. I blv comments were made about the subs firing into the engine compartment.

The thread I saw somewhere was a stock bench with subs forward. Guess maybe Ill have to search the forums once again!!

I have a Kicker marine 12" composite sub box in this area. 12" Kicker CVx12, 1000 watt kicker amp.

The sound is crystal clear @ 30 and makes most tower systems sound radio shack...
Total of 10 speakers / 4 - 6" mids, 4 - tweeters, 2 - 8" coaxials, 1 - 12" sub.

I realize I now went off topic, my point was that the OG poster & i have basically the same layout, so, in saying that... I talked to my audio guy and he strongly recommend me not to add speakers in the bench area due to the many elements, lack of air space and risk of puncture of the speakers in that area. Oregondunes was the guy who fabbed up a custom bench and made separate enclosures for each. Very sweet setup!!!

This is why I went with a composite box in that area, I still have plenty of space for everything else, buoys, life-jackets and the most important....... sandcastle making equipment!
