When we are sailing we use purpose-made waterproof pouches for the cell phones - these are clear plastic pouches with a bright yellow float attached so they can be retrieved if they go overboard. We usually stow the phones in the pocket that holds the tails of the main halyards on the back of the cabin.
We have dropped one over the side while cruising and have retrieved the phone intact and dry.
As for the alarm clock thing - my stereo has a timer on it and I can programme for it to start a tape or a CD or the tuner and adjust the volume to a certain level. It also has a sub-woofer attached - I have a fairly large stacker CD system and it could end up playing all sorts when it's set up on shuffle.
Therefore I got out of bed this morning to the wonderful sound of PJ Harvey and yesterday I was rudely awaken by RATM screaming 'WAKE UP!!!...'
