The cooler I used fits snugly in the ring, resting on the bottom, and is extremely stable. I've also been using bungee cords to tie it down, but that's probably only really needed for a small or tall cooler where there's a risk of it moving around.

Take a look, it seems to have almost everything you need. This is my first build and I plan to be on the river for 6-8 hours. http://www.amazon.com/Pyle-PLMRKT4A-Channel-Waterproof-Amplified/dp/B003GSLDUY/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1303935662&sr=1-2 I have 3 main questions: First, what is the ideal cooler qt size, is 54 Qt good?? Second, would a 12v battery be good enough or do you think i should get two or a car battery? Third, any suggestions on speaker placement, should i do one on each side, front back, top........... Thanks, I am glad I found this site. Hi Everyone, I just bought PYle marine speaker/amp set from Amazon and hope this works well for only $106.
