Hello! I'm a new user to this forum, but I've been visiting this site for the past two years for answers, but I have a question that needs answering becuase I haven't found the answer I am looking for. 

I'm hoping someone is willing to help!

I have a 1989 Correct Craft Sport Nautique that's in need to get speakers replaced. However I cannot determine if I can only fit a 5.25" speaker in the pre-cut holes? Attached are some photos. Can I put 6.5" speakers in this and be fine? 

Has anyone else upgraded their speakers in their boat themselves? I don't know what I'm doing here.



Here's a set that I want to get

Would this set of speakers work?

I've tried editing this post many times but for whatever reason the editor injects a bunch of css into the message. I remove them but it just gets placed back in there. 

Apologies.

5” is a common cutout size for 6.5” speakers. I think that is your question? Try google or looking up the specs on the replacement speaker in question.

I have a '93 Sport Nautique and installed 4 JBL MS65LW.  In the rear side existing holes I did have to use a hand saw to make more clearance for the speaker wire attachment points.   Its worth the effort - I wouldn't want want anything less than a  6 1/2 in that opening.

My fear is if I go to a 6.5" that the speaker will extend tot he edge of the upholstery. < ="text/" id="InjectStyleSet">.ButtonClassTab {height: 30px!important;width: 94px!important;background-color: #fff!important;border: 0!important;font-size: 17px!important;text-transform: capitalize!important;}#SaveInfoFormDiv .dontShowDialog:checked ~ label span path {stroke: #fff !important;}#SaveInfoFormDiv .dontShowDialog:checked ~ label span path {stroke: #fff !important;}.dontShowDialog:checked ~ label span {background-color: #68c98e !important;}.save-container label:after, .save-container label:before {display: none !important;}.save-container input:focus {box-shadow: none !important;border: none !important;outline: 0 !important;}.u-f-c-only {display: -webkit-box !important;display: -ms-flexbox !important;display: flex !important;-webkit-box-align: center !important;-ms-flex-align: center !important;align-items: center !important;}#SaveInfoFormDiv #sdesc {border: none !important;border-bottom: 1px solid #35B768 !important;transition: .2s !important;padding-bottom: 3px !important;}#SaveInfoFormDiv #sdesc:focus {border-bottom-color: green !important;}.u-f-c {display: -webkit-box!important;display: -ms-flexbox!important;display: flex!important;-webkit-box-align: center!important;-ms-flex-align: center!important;align-items: center!important;-webkit-box-pack: center!important;-ms-flex-pack: center!important;justify-content: center!important;}@keyframes formIntro10 {to {-webkit-transform: translateX(0);transform: translateX(0) }} #SaveInfoForm {transform: translateX(-20px);animation: formIntro10 1s ease forwards;box-shadow: 0px 0px 27px 5px #888888;}.mask.masked g path:first-child {fill: rgb(53, 183, 104) !important;}.mask.masked g path:nth-child(2) {display: none !important;}#FormFill:after {content: ""!important;width: 8px!important;height: 8px!important;background-color: #F4F6F4!important;border: 1px solid #E0E0E0!important;transform: rotate(45deg)!important;border-bottom-color: transparent!important;border-right-color: transparent!important;position: absolute!important;right: 33px!important;top: -5px!important;z-index: -1 !important;}#FormFill .clfx:after {content: " " !important;display: table !important;clear: both !important;}#FormFill .ff-user-account:hover {cursor: pointer;}#FormFill .ff-user-account .ff-copy {visibility: hidden !important;opacity: 0 !important;transition: .2s !important;}#FormFill .ff-user-account:hover .ff-copy {visibility: visible !important;opacity: 1 !important;}.btn:focus {outline: 0 !important;}.btn:active {outline: 0 !important;box-shadow: none !important;}.btn.btn--transparent-grey:hover {color: #707673 !important;box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px #e0e0e0 !important;}.btn.btn--green:hover {box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px #e0e0e0 !important;background: #02a442 !important;}.u-hide {display: none !important;}#SaveInfoForm td {vertical-align: middle !important;}#SaveInfoForm th {vertical-align: middle !important;}#SaveInfoForm tr {border: 0px !important;}#tableform{margin-top:25px !important;font-size:21px !important;text-align:center !important;animation:fadein 0.4s !important;-moz-animation:fadein 0.4s !important;-webkit-animation:fadein 0.4s !important;-o-animation:fadein 0.4s}@keyframes fadein{from{opacity:0}to{opacity:1}}@-moz-keyframes fadein{from{opacity:0}to{opacity:1}}@-webkit-keyframes fadein{from{opacity:0}to{opacity:1}}@-o-keyframes fadein{from{opacity:0}to{opacity:1}}#loadingid{display: block !important;padding: 29px 8px 25px 38px !important;font-size: 15px !important;font-weight: 500 !important;font-style: normal !important;visibility: visible !important;}#setOption{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}.showautofileform{width: 32px;height: 32px;position: absolute;padding: 0px;transition: opacity 0.11s, visibility 0.11s;z-index: 1000000000000000000;display: block;background: aquamarine;}md-input-container .md-input {box-shadow: 0 0 0 1000px #0000 inset!important;}

I’ll send you some pics after the weekend - boat is at the lake.   Again, I would not go smaller than 6 1/2.   A small amount of effort will pay dividends.

This is a pic from after I installed them last year.  The cut out is only 5 1/16"  It did not extend past the upholstery. (the external diameter is 7 1/16") 

 Look at the spec sheet below for detailed information.
