Sound while in the water

i am planning to add speakers to direct sound off the boat toward the rear. On my 330 I really don't see a good location for any conventional speaker installation. My plan now is to install JL Audio tower speakers on the radar arch for this purpose. I am hoping this will shotgun sound in that direction and not overpower the cockpit. Separate amp so I can regulate gain separate from the cockpit. Any thoughts, comments or experiences?
