Has anyone used this in a marine environment?

I installed two of these on my lake water sailboat a few months ago. They seem to be working fine with no problems.

I have used it on my centerconsole floor hatch for a few months and it is still in good shape. It doesnt move a tremendous amount of air but does the job i needed it for. I recommend this product. Good value also.

James, I installed two about a year on my Columbia sailboat and have been very happy with them. One is in the head and the other in the main cabin. One is set up as intake and the other as exhaust. Keeps the condensation down. Very happy so far.

I have had it installed on my sailboat for a few months now. so far so good.

I mounted this on the front hatch of our Sailboat and it worked wonderfully. Our boat was kept at a local freshwater lake and had full sun hitting the bow almost all day long. This fan really helped keep air moving through the boat. It isn't meant to cool you off below deck, but helps keep the boat fresh while it is locked up during the week. One other great feature is that it is solar and doesn't require you to run additional wiring for power. We hardly ever used the light feature because we had other lights in the berth where this was mounted.

I put two of these in the hatches of my 30 foot sailboat last summer. They have worked quite well for the season they have been installed. They did see quite a bit of rough weather and seawater without leaking or incident. I don

Installed unit on my boat that stays in salt water year round. Still works like new.

I wouldn't use it on the outside of a submarine, myself, but mine has taken an occasional sprinkle and is still working.

I haven't used mine in the Ocean, only on a river with a strong current. It's a very stable boat and unlikely to turtle, but the tracking isn't the best so if there's a current it'll be a challenge to manoeuvre it. The rubber is very sturdy and should withstand the salt water. But I'm not sure how it would handle in stronger currents.

I don't know if it can be used as a flotation device in the ocean. I have never submerged it in salt water. I don't think I would buy it or use it for that purpose at the risk of damaging it when proper flotation devices could be purchased for much cheaper.

Not sure for marine applications, but I haven't had any problems with moisture intrusion/corrosion on my motorcycle. I always spray your connections with water displacement agents regularly.

No I was surprisingly impressed with it. Everything is working great so far, I've taken it scuba diving, kayaking, paddle boarding. I just make sure to rinse it in fresh water after I use it in the ocean, and try to dry off the extendable area.

We've used it in our saltwater pool and it seems fine so far. We have not used it in/near the ocean, though.

Not I did use it outside and put marine silicone in the edges, eventough I have discontinued the use of 3 of this chargers, more problems than benefits, different readings of charging between 2 adjacent ones, etc.

Unfortunately our unit did not work so can't answer your question. Pro mariner would not allow us to return the unit so I gave up and kept the non working unit.David Sandwell, University of California at San Diego. dsandwell@ucsd.edu

It is definately not water proof....it is just made in such a way that enables it to be more resistant to corrosion in a marine environment.

Yes, suitable for marine use....keep waterproof dielectric marine grade grease on the fittings to prevent corrosion.

Yes, I've used this camera in sea water, fresh water, and even chlorinated/pool water and this camera works perfectly.

I have mine in a marine environment, in my boat with no problems for three years, wouldn't recommend installing them in direct sunlight. Make sure you order them in white.

We have used ours in saltwater, but don't forget to give it a good rinse afterwards!

I've owned one since june of 2013, I'm on the Ocean every weekend and no less than twice a week. Iv been caught in the rain and had plent of salt water splash on the Standard Horizon unit with no issues. I wouldn't throw it over board and try to use it after but its worked well for me here in Maine.

Yes. I live in Hawaii and use the device on a small boat. The unit is water resistant, regularly gets wet from ocean spray and I rinse it down with fresh water after each outing.

I have this installed for my fresh water wash down option on my 21' Seapro...It worked in a Salt Water environment all last season but I don't know about its actual use for saltwater.
