Binoculars for the boat

 Hi all

I'm going to get new binoculars for the boat and am looking for recommendations. They will just be used for general stuff and often while at anhor/on a mooring. I had Kinglux 10 x 50 waterproof ones but the waterproof coating went all manky and couldn't be fixed. Maybe 10x is too high magnification based on a bit of research I've done. They don't need to be waterproof as such as they won't be used in rain or with spray off the water. They will just be kept in a marine environment but in their case etc. Budget to around $250 give or take a bit.

Any thoughts appreciated.
