It will definitely work but is actally a little short as Marine vhf is around 156 Mhz and Fleetnet is below that as you mentioned.

An antenna designed for the frequency you want will work better than one that is not.

A choice that would be closer and perhaps give you better performance would be an antenna designed for the 2m amateur band wich is 144 - 148 MHz
