I don't believe this particular model is for saltwater but they do have models where you can choose whether it will be for freshwater or salt water. In the search box just put in paddleboat for salt water.

I've owned one since june of 2013, I'm on the Ocean every weekend and no less than twice a week. Iv been caught in the rain and had plent of salt water splash on the Standard Horizon unit with no issues. I wouldn't throw it over board and try to use it after but its worked well for me here in Maine.

It's stainless and saltwater safe but dragging it through the sand might be a bit difficult. They are bicycle tires. It's great for fields and docks...

Should be no problem in a closed body of water without waves or strong winds. One could paddle this boat, however it is set up for rowing.

Be aware that salt water will kill it, period. Also, based on experience with other RC boats, heavily chlorinated water like at public pool can be pretty bad for the motors also. Read rest of my review o this item. "GROG"

No. I've put a wavestorm in one and that was pretty much its limit. There is a larger version that is made for longboards but that would probably still have trouble with a SUP

Yes, you can use it in the ocean. I own a boat rental company at a lake in the Dallas area... I would caution you that these jumbo dogs have a tendency to leak air / go flat easier than they should.I've owned several over the years...they just dont have a long life, depending on how much you use them.If you are using repeatedly or for commercial use I would suggest a real banana tube. Real banana tubes can be $800-1000.The real banana tubes are a much thicker material. These jumbo dogs have a thinner plastic liner. They really cant take a lot of abuse.

It's great for saltwater! The only issue I have had is that you get water inside the prop housing. Not a huge deal, I just remove the prop after each outing and clean the housing

Yes, it works on salt water. It is easier to maneuver with 2 people in the boat because it's heavier, and you have to make sure it's fully inflated.

Yes, I use mine in the ocean all the time. I have two ocean kayaks and I rarely use them anymore. It's so much easier to transport the sevylor. I highly recommend buying the "skeg" when using the kayak in oceans and lakes. The skeg also helps in rivers, but the skeg can present problems with boulders, rocks, branches and debris in a river. The skeg helps to keep the kayak tracking in a straight line. The inflatable seats are pretty useless. I use small canvas folding stadium type chairs instead and secure them to the kayak with rope.

I honestly do not know. The very small instruction booklet that it came with was not even in English. It has worked great the couple of times I have taken it out. Very loud, but it runs! I just don't know about salt water.. sorry.

No. I used mine on my boat and the accessory has some corrosion after one year on the salt water.

Yes it can. I have a salt water pool and it works just fine. I haven't noticed any corrosion and I've had my SharkVac for about two years now.

Honestly I'm not sure. I've got it on a fresh-water lake. The mechanism underneath is a steel bar with plastic paddles and plastic rudder, so it may work alright in salt water if you take it out after use and oil the steel parts periodically.

I have never used it in salt water, I suppose it could be used, my first thought would be the same as fishing reels. When I use rods and reels in salt water I always make an effort to clean and flush with fresh water prior to storing them. The metal frame would certainly be exposed to salt water, and would rust if neglected. The pontoons would fair much better, but would clean them as well after use in salt water.

I don't use it in salt water. I am not sure if it is compatible or not. Recommend you check Minn Kota website.
