Re: 2004 360 sport sedan flat screen installation
In the salon, we'd like to mount a flat screen on the wall behind the dinette seat. This is however a fairly thin wall with the forward head behind it. In the aft stateroom, we'd like to put this on the wall at the foot of the bed. The existing space is really small and I'd like to convert these areas to cabinet storage. I've seen similar boats for sale that had the tv mounted in the same place in this room but I am not sure what mounting system they used.
Has anyone mounted a flat screen in a similar boat? Any suggestions on a mounting system?

UPDATE (in case it helps anyone else)
We installed two 32" Samsung flat screens on our Carver 355 -- one above the dinette and one on the aft stateroom at the foot of the bed. For the dinette, we anchored through the wall and patched the two screw holes in the forward head. Cables were run up through the dinette seat. We angled the tv to match angle in the back of the dinette seat. This allows for better viewing throughout the cabin. We also ran an html cable to the new stereo system to enable the stereo to play DVDs on the TV. (The box to the right of the TV is a Nintendo Switch. Haven't yet figured out the best place for that)
We also moved the stereo to the co-exist with the vent space in the adjoining space. This opened up substantial space where the tv and stereo were previously located. We then moved the door in front of this space so they wine cabinet and new radio are not behind closed doors.
BEFORE
AFTER
For the aft stateroom, we learned that there is a small hallow space that allowed for anchoring without disruption into the salon. Cables were eventually run through the hallow space and the tv is plugged into a new electrical outlet in the port side closet.
(pic taken prior to cables being routed)
There was an opportunity to have gone a little bigger in the salon and a lot bigger in the aft stateroom.

Re: 2004 360 sport sedan flat screen installation
If you want a cheap upgrade that makes your boat look 15 years newer, replace the burnt orange triangle window covers, and valances over the salon windows with a color that matches or accents the off white side panels. Also ditch the burnt orange curtains in the forward berth. You will be amazed at the difference.
