I'm sure they are ok boats, but salt isn't exactly an area of known expertese for NR. I'd look at Boulton, Woolridge, Ed Wing, and especially Bow Boat Works who will build to your specs.

I'd look at ifish.net\Salty Dogs for more info about NR salt boats since they sell a lot of them down there where they are made in OR.
