My Boat Has A Hard Top Without Speakers – Can I Add Them?

Some CRI boats with hardtops ship without speakers for various reasons, but it is possible to add an aftermarket stereo. In almost every case whereby a boat ships without a factory-installed stereo the hardtop will have cover speaker cut outs. Using a screwdriver, an owner can simply remove the covers and run the needed wiring down the legs of the hardtop into the overhead box and/or to the console panel.

What is the length from the waterline to the top of the bow on an LX24?

The top of the bow to waterline measures approximately 32″.

This question is typically linked to the desire to install an aftermarket trolling motor. In most cases, a 72″ should be fine as it is of the more commonly used length. However, for owners who plan offshore runs and to use their trolling motor as an active anchor, you may want a longer shaft.

Where is the transducer located on my stepped hull boat?

In most cases, the through-hull transducer for boats manufactured in the FX, LX, & SX class will be located forward of the steps. The purpose of this location is to ensure that the transducer gets a clear reading.

Should the need arise to service the transducer, most models have access hatches on, around, or underneath the console-front well. Prior to attempting to self-service and potentially voiding your hull warranty we STRONGLY recommend contacting a local CRI dealer for assistance.

Where can I purchase replacement parts for my boat?

As we do not sell replacement parts directly to the public we recommend you contact your local CRI dealer for assistance. To help your dealer to locate the parts you need, be sure to provide your vessel’s hull identification number.

Tip:
Failing to provide your boat’s serial number (or other requested information) with your parts request will greatly delay your dealer’s ability to provide you with timely service.
