"Magnification 7x is the marine standard, with a wide, stable image for tracking other boats, buoys and bridge numbers even in rough water. "
The brand and features you get are up to your preferences. I like the Steiner's but I will admit they are a little heavy. But the anti-fog and auto-focus are great features. It lets you focus each eyepiece to your vision once, then keeps images sharp from 20 yards to infinity.
I have heard that West Marine sells a good 7x50 Marine binocular at a reasonable price.
