Marines dont last much longer.
 
The location of the radio relative to rain or canvas drip exposure will help determine the useful life.

On my cuddy cabin a brand new marine radio was good for 2 seasons. After my second unit I decided a boom box and Ipod was the best solution. If your radio is inside a dry cabin with a door it will last longer.

Another option is to install a plug for your MP3 player. In a lot of new cars you will find these on the dash. Most stereos have some unused wires for a "line-in". This way, you keep your marine stereo and have the ability to play many CDs worth of music.
