You can run any R/C boat in the ocean if your willing to take on the additional maintainance. Back in the islands (HOME) we ran in the ocean all the time with all kinds of R/C boats from fast electrics with high end motors and ESC to big gas and everything in between.
We flipped them sank them and what ever else you can think of. Maintaince is the only major differance when running in salt water.

I tend to agree with 97Trakin. I also feel your boat is a little small to be running in the open salt. Plan on washing EVERYTHING down and using LOTS OF LPS
