You forget I live on a 310mi long river that's a boater's paradise. All I know is freshwater boating. I wouldn't touch saltwater if you paid me.
Didn't you go in salt water earlier this year? So I'm dying to know who paid you?

Had a blast!
Oh. Yeah that last picture. Boat died as I was pulling in to park. Did some beachside diagnostics and the ignition had no spark. 12.x volts were going into the coil, but I did the redneck test of sticking a screwdriver in the coil wire and getting it close to ground, no spark. Took the coil wire off and inside the coil where the male end of the wire goes in, it was full of this like putty like weird black crap (and covering the wire terminal). Tried to scrape it off best I could to get metal/metal contact, but no juice coming out of the coil. Called BoatUS and exercised my unlimited tow plan when we were done for the day. My buddy gave me a coil when we got home I'll throw it on tomorrow and see if she fires up.
