Default Salt Water Boats

From what I've read, salt water has a very negative impact on engine longevity, and it only takes a few hours of operation in salt water to contaminate the engine cooling passages irretrievably with salt.

That's one of the reasons that used Lake Winni boats command higher prices than those with a history of salt water use.
