Us advanced offroad guys do this a lot ... for electro-mechanical components there's a wondrous substance called dielectric grease ... load it up till it oozes out. Connections are checked to be tight and clean then we use some electrical tape around that. Computers are usually fairly well sealed but silicone sealant around the edges never hurt anyone. Motors ... don't use em wet.
A practical waterproof container for electronics could be a modified tupperware container. have a couple holes for power, couple for input/output seal the holes with silicone as well as the top. For extra protection put it up high.
But for most things its lots of tape, grease, and sealant ... no joke I have at least 50lbs in my rig.
