I know that there are only 2 companies that make true MARINE stereos.
1. Clarion
2. Clarion
J/k
2. Tristar Distributing. They take Kenwood decks apply silicone epoxy to coat circuit boards, and add a mylar drip shield to protect the chasis. They also convert the unit to accept a hardwired marine remote. Carver Yachts and Formula use them OEM.
Some MFG's just change the facia to white and call it marine.
If you are sure it will rained on, go Clarion. While nothing is waterproof, Clarion is your best bet!

P.S. Alpine makes the best sounding MARINE 6.5" coax speaker. Babb has the best sounding MARINE 6x9's. MB Quart makes the best sounding MARINE seperates. I wouldn't try to steer you wrong. I don't stock 2 of these brands.
