I'm not looking for a concert on the water, just some tunes. I'm ok with the Jap standards. I'm going to be keeping it in a hatch anyway. Just wanted the waterproof cause the last time I took a radio on the water, I capsized and it sank to the bottom.
My girlfriend who will be going with me wants the music on board as well.

You have every reason to do as you wish. That takes Freedom to a whole new level. But remember, we live in a highly material world. Sound as we know it today is a highly evolved process to push the limits beyond the envelope of what our last generation accepted as a standard.
All this stuff comes at a compromise (it seems):
On a vessel that cannot produce it's own power, you are limited in your abilty to project volume. Ok if your girlfriend wants tunes also, then get a splitter and make sure that you have enough wattage for both of you to be happy (or your choice of tunes)
If you each want your own choice, then your answer is even simpler, just get two waterproof MP3 players in their own waterproof cases.
The Compromise?
You loose connection in a water world where you BOTH need your ears as well as your sight (and com levels with each other) to get the maximum level of connection with your surroundings.
However, your experience level may differ than my own...
Take care, my friend
