Lots of things in your engine room are already not IP such as alternator, starter, various switches and motors. IP not required for diesel boats. I would not worry about the water heater thermostat.
Even if the heater you want comes with a 220v element, elements can be changed to 110v. Little water heaters are often 110v off the shelf. HD usually has a bunch of replacement elements off the shelf too.
