I have several Carbon boats set up like you described and have never had any problems.

It might pay to leak test the radio box - especially if the carbon was vaccuum bagged. Sometimes you need to brush a coat of resin on the inside of the radio box to make certain it is waterproof.

I have not experienced radio problems. Just make sure the receiver antenna wire sticks out of the boat otherwise you could experience interference. Also make sure the antenna wire is properly insulated so no bear metal wire touch the carbon.
