If you're just going to get occasional surf spray or splash by a wave, or rained on, then just to wrap in plastic and black tape should be sufficient.

But if you plan to fully submerse: Just make sure that whatever you do is not air-tight. Because that can cause condensation on the inside. Right ?

Good luck! I paid a friend to build a water proof box and it worked great until I had to change the batteries, than I did not get it sealed up good and salt water got in and it fried it! I ended up buying an Excalibur.
