You want a router that is capable of "Wireless client mode" and then potentially something else to rebroadcast a private wlan (if you actually need wireless on your boat..I don't know how big it is)
If your current router cannot do this then be careful what you buy as some of the Wireless client routers only support one client as they are intended to wireless enable a single wired device like a games console.
However you can get around this if you get a wireless ethernet router and plug something capable of wireless client mode into it's WAN socket.
That would give you a private subnet that has a route to the internet.
There are also ways of doing this on a single bit of kit but not on any consumer grade kit I know of without using one of the open firmware projects on a supported router.
