Top Rated Marine Binoculars
Choosing a pair of binoculars for use on a boat can be tough; some choices are better than others. The marine environment combines constant dampness with temperature changes, that can cause the interior lenses of non–waterproof binoculars to fog. Waterproof construction, with the interior o-ring sealed and filled (charged) with dry nitrogen, combined with flotation in the strap, can protect your binoculars if they fall overboard.
Here are the four top-rated marine binoculars – rated by the people who bought them.
