Any wood that has been in the ocean will destroy your stove in a matter of months.
I sell wood stoves. A fellow brought in his stainless steel baffle from a stove that he purchase from us less than 6 months earlier. He had been burning wood that had been in the ocean. I could literally crumble it in my hand.
