Have any of you all installed speakers on the bow of the boat? If so where?
Could you share with us the purpose of these speakers?
Just to connect to the stereo system. I have two 6" speakers in cockpit and two other speakers in cabin, but nothing out front
I hope you don't anchor near me.

Not sure where they could go on the bow unless you hung them from the pulpit. That might get in the way of other stuff though.
she : Think you'd be better off with a BlueTooth head set!
A thought
Food for thought - better zone coverage means lower overall volume if you want to hear :)?

Shehant is technically right there Noah!
All jokes aside, the only thing that comse to mind for me is a multi zone stereo like a fusion where you could have a socket that sits in the anchor locker and a set of "deployable" speakers that you plug into that socket and clamp to the bow pulpit. I can't think of a way of permanemtly deploying speakers up there that wouldn't get the wiped out or damaged when sailing.
It is a 34ft. sailboat. Dance parties on the bow?
The only correct songs on the bow of a sailboat are sea shanties. :D

I don't have dance parties on the bow but people like to layout to get sun or just hang out but you can't hear the cockpit speakers on the bow. I have given some thought to bow speakers but it hasn't gotten farther than that, it would be nice though.
I think a portable bluetooth speaker would do the trick. Just link with your phone. You could also use it ashore.
