We are looking to rent a place in the water in the Keys. Are we able to dock the boat in the water for 3-4 days?

Just got back from a trip, had my boat in salt water docked up for 4 days. I had no issues whatsoever. My model year has the anti corrosion coating on the nozzles grates ect. I still sprayed everything with crc heavy duty corrosion inhibitor and greased all my linkages real good. Also sprayed the 3m appolstery with anti stain and uv protectant stuff. I had no staining of the hull and the zinc still look barely worn. Took it out and flushed the motors really good and used salt away. Impellars and shafts all look corrosion free. Good luck

If you haven’t thought about it, put some thought into your trailer. Sometimes rental places won’t let you store a trailer. Also, you’ll want to give it a good dose of an anti corrosion coating too. I would also look into an available water hose so you can flush your boat out with salt away as Dixemon mentioned.

What model years have that anti corrosion on it?
