I was thinking to obviously keep all electronics well covered, and just have the screen accessible to the elements.
Whats your thoughts.

Hi, from a mechanical view, I would suggest to use something like this one:

Reason is that it will be very easy to have a nice and safe install of the display, since it is mounted "on top", you don't have to be so accurate when making the hole for the display.
I have some smaller 3.5" that looks like those, and they are really good looking. These will not be operated from Raspberry, using them for some extra info at different places in the boat, and at home:

NB! These needs to be "programmed", no HDMI/DSI.
