Where to mount new radio?
Santa showed w/ a new VHF radio for the boat, an 88' V-20 cuddy. The current radio is an Apelco and has been sitting on the port dash for years but still works but the speaker is getting hard to hear. I was thinking of mounting this radio in the cabin, on the bulkhead. Appears that if I mount it on the port side that I could see and operate all controls from the helm. What do you guys think. I could just put it up on the dash where the other one is but then again I think it might be nice to get it out of the weather. As for my other electonics, I have a Furuno 600l mounted on the port dash facing the helm and a Navman plotter on a custom bracket to the right of th helm. Current radio is mounted all the way to the port side and I cannot see or operate it from the helm. What do you guys think?
