Tv install and swim platform extension

zaverin1zaverin1 Member Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭
I want to install a tv in my 280.
good spot would be behind the cabinet that's facing v berth. I am also looking to buy a mount where I can swing it and have the tv face the sitting area.
now what mounts do you guys prefer or use. What size tv is most common.
final question is i am think about going with a 12 volt tv vs 110.

so I found only one company that makes a somewhat of a true bolt on extension for my boat. Are there any other places that make them for rinkers?
thanks.

    I went with an Axxes 12v TV/DVD for my 280. The size is 19". It isn't the greatest picture, but it is nice to be able to use it while underway. If you look around at the newer TV's, a lot of them have an external transformer and the output of that transformer is usually 12VDC. You could probably get a better picture on a mainstream TV.

    I have had a great experience with swimplatforms.com.  They have the swim platform patterns for many different boats and have great customer service.  I installed it myself it took 2 or 3 people and about 2 hours.  It was the best investment I made on the boat.
