Tomorrow morning getting my 2004 cdory 22 angler delivered from Washington to my home in Georgetown California. Owned a few dorys but never a 22ft angler
Has 2018 40 yamahas efi. Radar, autopilot etc . Been an Arima guy for a few years but crossed over...again. Will post pics upon arrival. First thing I'm looking in to getting is a stereo and led light bars. Any suggestions? |

| I guess that sounded wrong. Lol. No boom box here just a regular radio installed and spot light in the front and ones mounted to cover deck. |

Stereo… get a good Bluetooth speaker and a Pandora or Spotify subscription for your cell phone

For music we used Sirus XM for many years on our boats. We used a Blue tooth receiver to a blue tooth receiver amp, and speakers.
I would avoid light bars. I put a temporary magnetic docking light (actually a 12 V tractor light which adheres to the anchor, and does not flare back on the deck.. I have also used small LED displays on each side of the roof forward--again as docking light. Same thing aft. I also put red LED's under the eyebrow and covering the cockpit for getting around at night and not loosing our dark accommodation.

I agree Bob-
I use USB rechargeable red bicycle lights in the pilothouse & cockpit when needed. Small, portable and efficient.
My JBL Charge 4 bluetooth speaker and a cellphone is plenty of noise for me.

I agree about avoiding lightbars. I've been blinded on too many pre-dawn fishing trips. And killing you night vision is a bad idea.
I'm surprised the coast guard even allows them??
