We have a 24 in tv powered by a 410w. Inverter. Plenty of power to run the amplified digital antenna too. When channels are not good we plug in the fire stick and use our hotspot on the phone. Ted.

Bill, IMO — There are not many TVs and DVD players that can really hold up to marine weather unless you are running dehumidifiers all the time. Also, those digital antennas will get you some stations, but not a whole lot. Suggest you look into an iPad or other big tablet — there are mounts galore on Amazon for mounting in the cabin, you can watch or stream movies off the internet, and you’ll have another device for navigation, internet, and, in some cases, a repeater/control for your marine electronics. We use my iPad air to watch movies and TV (My cable service at home comes with free streaming so I can watch anything on the iPad that I can at home, including off the home DVR) and I put magnetic mounts in the main saloon and in the aft cabin over the bed. On our last cruise, we had a beautiful night, sat out in the cockpit and watched (big surprise) 2009’s "Star Trek”. All the best, Edd Edd M.
