Hey Gerald. If I see my neighbor tomorrow, I'll ask him. He's a boat mechanic.

According to google
Marine batteries are designed with sturdier and more elevated plates for electricity. The reasoning for this is so that the battery doesn't short circuit while bouncing around with the boat during rough waters, which is, of course, much different from being in a car on the road.

While we are sort of on the "marine" subject, marine radios have benefits over automotive as well. Sizes are the same (single din), but they have a marine band, are more waterproof, and (the reason I went marine band) are available in more colors.
