I am looking for one of these speaker covers for a 1991. These seem to be a pretty common speaker on some Nautiques. Not sure if it was from the factory or the dealer. The build sheet I have for my boat says it had a factory stereo. I have seen several boats photographed with this speaker, so I am hoping to find one.. I have a broken grill and want to keep my 1991 as original as possible. Please help! Thanks

How do you know that is stock from Nautique and not installed by a dealer? Just curious.

I don't. My boat was built with a factory stereo according to the build sheet I have. I have seen two or maybe three boats on various sites that have this same speaker in it. So I can't say if they are factory or not- what I can say is I have seen several NAUTIQUES with these speakers-so that gives me a little hope!

You may want to check to see if the speaker cones are still good. Probably not after 24 years.
May be a good idea to replace all four speakers with new ones....and new matching covers. IMHO Had to do the same on my '93 |

Already did. My boat has 38 hours on it when I bought it last year- Had been stored since new. Just had a broken cover. Thanks

Zach- you ever come across these? You may have one. My boat came from a distributer up that way. I'll look and see. The three boats I have seen these in were from Indiana and Illinois.

Rod, I looked through my archives and also spotted plenty of these grills. With your luck you'll find some NOS on eBay tonight!

Hollywood- your funny! Been looking since I got the boat in April. Trying this route- someone has to have some. Nice used shape- really any shape to keep the look.

OK. My 93 had a different style but I have no record of the original build. Interesting stuff. There is always more to learn with these boats... That's what make it so much fun!

Many stereos were dealer installed- but it's a guessing game. Yes a great hobby

As I recall a 93 is a new style single exhaust quiet boat, but thought I would add the "351 is music to my ears, loud pipes save lives" comment, as required in any stereo related thread..

Thanks. It seems that the speaker should be in lots of early 1990's boats. Just need to catch someone with one or upgrading their stereo. Thanks for the info. Joe

New Bimini, PP, and speakers are up next. Just gotta figure which is most important: looks, performance, or sound.
