They are as soon as they get bolted on a marine engine.

I can make them marine with candy cane vents.... I am willing to bet 70% of boats do not have marine carbs.... Look at all the boats with braided line and AN fittings.... Not rated.... But 90% have that.... Is what it is

What part number are you using ? I called Quick fuel and they said there is special tuning and colored black for marine use. This this true?

J tubes are not a coast guard requirement.

No disrespect intended! Just saying everybody has their own way of doing things!
