Hi, I'm looking at installing a Dolphin T-Top along with an electronics box. I wanted to mount the VHF and a Helix 7 in it but it looks just like a big box and actually wanted some sort of enclosure inside it. Any Ideas? Can any of you show pics of your electronics box setup?

Thanks

You don’t want to put the depth finder in an overhead enclosure. Most inconvenient place on a boat to mount it. Been there, done that.

The enclosure on my hardtop serves two purpose. It’s acts as a wire pass through for radar and gps sensors on top. Also houses my VHF, Bluetooth Stereo and a fuse/distribution panel to supply power to the electronics .

GPS is flush mounted in electronic box at helm. Depth finder is gimbal mounted to top of helm for ease of viewing and adjustment.
