Apple's CarPlay and Google's Android Berline are meant for, well, cars and automobiles, however despite the brogue on landlubber locomotion, there's technically no reasoning that one couldn't use them for navigating the high-reaching seas. And that's just what Preponderate Audio's new aftermarket MRCP9685A throne unit promises: a weatherproof module that offers the ableness to use CarPlay and Android Berline not just in sought cars, however in off-road vehicles like Jeeps and planate boats.
Installing an aftermarket throne unit into a dinghy isn't a new concept, however receiving a weatherproof one that supports both CarPlay or Android Berline and the rigors of the seafaring life is increasingly difficult. At least one enterprising Reddit user has already approved to jury-rig a agnate implementation by installing a standard car unit, passible that CarPlay worked "perfectly," however that they still had some assignment to do to scandalize gathered water-resistant.
But the MRCP9685A neatly dodges that issue: it's designed with "marine-grade" weatherproofing, significance you'll be curvation to install it in any dinghy that accepts a standard double-dip DIN throne unit. In dependency to suture for CarPlay and Android Berline (over a standard USB cable, just like a car), the MRCP9685A conjointly kilter suture for Bluetooth audio, rear camera inputs for cars, and an integrated radio tuner.
Of course, person an aftermarket throne unit, you'll still need to install the MRCP9685A yourself (or impose a promising to do it for you). However if you've been dying for a way to use Android Navigating or BoatPlay out on the water, Preponderate Audio's new setup seems like it could be the answer.
The MRCP9685A is awaited from Preponderate Audio's website for $289.99.
