I have had great reliability from my older Standard Horizon VHF with  
Lithion battery. I have accidently left it on for a week and it still  
received traffic on the next paddle. One thing to be aware of is that  
the screws will slowly corrode in a marine environment. I would  
squish a little silicon over the screw heads to stop this. Keep in  
mind this isnt a knock at the radio but rather part of my 12 step  
program to cure me of being a gear butcher.
