I owned a Sanger v210 before my Axis. The boat was used occasionally in salt water and flushed religiously. It looked very clean! I bought the boat and moved to Colorado. It was about a year before I had issues: the trailer rusted out (bearings and all), the hydraulic jacks rusted, every screw that wasn't stainless rusted, I had to replace almost all of the wiring, and eventually sold the boat after replacing a hole in the oil pan from rust.
It seemed like getting the boat away from salt water didn't really stop the corrosion! I will not own another salt water boat!
Good points about the hardware. I'd also be concerned with the upholstery and stitching exposed to salt or brackish water.
