The usual solution on boats: Use a decent car radio.. Well shielded,
expects outdoor antenna. Runs on 12Volts... Can be had with CD player,
separate input for your Ipod etc.., good audio power to speakers
etc.... And designed to work inside a metal vehicle....

Best of all, it can be bolted down. That's really important on a boat.
However, many newer car radios (newer as in "last 20-30 years") don't
have very good tuners. Best to get one from the era of Ge-transistors,
those radios were usually good.

Better yet, get an Icom, Yeasu or whatever comms receiver. Most have a
WFM setting. Ok, no stereo sound but one can easily listen to NOAA
radio, ship-to-shore channels and so on.
