    Salt water vs Fresh water?

    I am loosely thinking about getting a new boat. Currently have a 22 foot Bennington with a 115. We currently keep ours docked at an inland lake in northeast Ohio and enjoy my Bennington a great deal! We will be here for a few years but eventually will be in Florida in salt water. Any thoughts...
