In the Top End

Built for sun and salt

Modus Marine Audio makes its speakers from UV and corrosion resistant Santoprene, by its own spec, and uses Deutsch-style connectors. Up here the sun and salt find every weak joint, so that's what we look for first.

Party Mode links boats up to 330 feet apart, so a raft-up on the harbour shares one playlist.
