is this waterproof? looking for a radio to bring rafting.

Yes/No - sorry for the vague answer but it withheld exposure to rain before being brought under cover but wouldn't promise it would handle rafting. Could you consider putting into a heavy duty ziploc/waterproof bag during transport and using it on dry land???

"Weather" proof-yes. "Waterproof"-no. It will take some water like if you left it out in the rain over night, itd be fine but it wont be fine if you drop it in the lake.

Instruction manual says: Do not expose the appliance to rain or moisture. Do not submerge or expose for extended period to water. Protect from high humidity and rain. However, a super great product in every other way.

You will not have any problem transmitting through your Kayak. However, I don't think the unit is waterproof!

Hi Dave, This antenna maybe weatherproof but not waterproof. It's designed for indoor use, it just won't last as long outside. Hope this helps.Phil

The head unit is not waterproof. Speakers can get water on them and still be fine from what I've done getting in and out of the boat, but none of this stuff is waterproof.

I am not sure as I have not had it out in the wet weather yet. It is a fantastic radio.

Yes, I found that it is waterproof. I used it during a very rainy weekend and it was great.

I wouldn't trust them with a lot of water. I would treat them similar to your cell phone. They are amazing radios for the price!

No, it is not waterproof. The remote itself, however, is waterproof to a depth of 3 meters (10 feet). I am an underwater photographer and have experimented with a number of different configurations, none of which have worked well at depths of 30'-60'.

Yes, it's quite a good waterproof mp3 player. The ear phone that comes with it is quite uncomfortable but generally I would suggest it. Have fun!

They are not waterproof. I have seen videos of them crashing into puddles, and creaks and still working but not completely submerged. I myself fly mine over the water alot, chasing my boat, and I assume if its lands in the river its a DONE. i use a timer to make sure i get it back to me before battery dies.

The radio FM reception is very good. This is the third waterproof radio I have had and it is by far the best.

First...It takes 2AA Bats. Yes sure you can take it down a river ride. BUT...Before doing so I would for sure recommend waterproofing it a bit better. The battery compartment has rubber going around it so it can withstand a heavy downpour. But I would not recommend submerging it. It's an expensive piece of equipment. If you want to take it on the Ocean you can purchase maps.

Yes and no ..... depends on the make and model. ... but you can find way better radios for this price..... don't really see the need for a waterproof radio in a Honda civic! But it's up to you.

I am not an expert on radios, like someone who is trying to sell you a transmitter for a boat, but I would think it would be ok. Of course there is the water issue but I would think you should be able to overcome that problem fairly easily. You might go to the site that specializes in boat transmitters and see what, if anything, makes theirs different. There are so many different way to setup your right and left turns and speed. I wish you good luck with your project. Robert

Possibly.... but pretty sure you want a vhf marine radio.... check with a boating store that deals with ocen going sailcraft..... (a bit pricer.. but more to what your needs would be)

A good question!! Unfortunately I have not tested to see if it was waterproof. I am sorry.

I see NO way it could be water proof.(Resistant.?) as for a Boat, where I am, I barely get any signal, on water ,doubtful.
