Power and Versatility: Choose your stereo based on the size of your boat and your listening needs. Models with integrated amplifiers offer greater power and sound quality. Always check the number of channels and the RMS power to ensure you have an adequate system.

How to Choose the Right Boat Radio for Your Boat

Choosing the right stereo for your boat depends on several factors:

• Boat Size: For small boats, a compact dashboard radio is sufficient, while larger boats are better suited for a multi-zone audio system with an amplifier.


• Environmental Conditions: Make sure the stereo is resistant to water, salt spray, and UV rays. Look for models with IP (Ingress Protection) certification.


• Desired Features: Bluetooth, USB, AUX, DAB+ radio, smartphone compatibility... choose the features you really need.

The Nautica Basile Workshop's Advice

• Installation: Entrust the installation to a professional to avoid damage to the boat's electrical system.


• Maintenance: Regularly clean the stereo with a damp cloth to remove salt and dirt.


• Protection: When you are not using the boat, protect the stereo with a waterproof cover.
