Bluetooth Speaker

[Algonquin]

Ok, so not really hi-fi, bit I’m looking for recommendations for a robust BT speaker to take on solo fishing expeditions. Needs to be weatherproof (ip67), and small enough to fit in a backpack. £150 max.
Any thoughts?

We had a thread about this recently
Rob was looking for one for FOL I think

JBL Charge 5. Close the thread.

Portable Bluetooth/Wi-Fi speaker thing?

FoL#1 Ellie is off to Uni in September, and I don’t think it’s a good idea for her to take her little HiFi (Techie SL1700, Teac AH500 amp & matching cd, Chromecast Audio, some NAD bookshelf speakers). I thought I’d treat her to a decent boom box for doing so well in her BTEC. Needs to be iPhone compatible, reasonably robust so she can take it down to the beach, sound decent enough and £250 ish?

I bought one of these recently. Sound is good (if you use the app to set the EQ) and waterproof too plus a £20 off voucher at the moment but might be a bit on the large size.

Quick update, and thanks to all who commented. Brother has donated a surplus Cambridge Audio Go v2 to the cause, so despite it being not in the least robust or weatherproof , the search is (for the moment) off!
