Yes. The reason it is a preferred material for boat hulls is its corrosion resistance.
Corrosion is a relentless enemy of metal and can become structural in nature, especially if it is induced by stray onboard current or from a nearby boat. By contrast, 99%+ of Fiberglas hull blistering is cosmetic, not structural.
Since salt water has a very high degree of salinity and is an excellent conductor of electricity, Fiberglas hulls have superior resistance to corrosion and are poor conductor of electricity.

How much force can break fiberglass?
The amount of force needed to break fiberglass will vary depending on the type and thickness of the fiberglass. In general, fiberglass is a strong material and can withstand significant force, but it can be broken with enough impact or pressure.
Can a fiber glass withstand high temperature?
The answer depends somewhat on what you mean by "withstand" and how high a temperature you consider to be "high" temperature. Fiberglass will begin to lose tensile strength as it warms up. The fiberglass fibers will eventually reach a softening point where they will deform easily before they actually melt. The strength, softening point, melting point, and char point of fiberglass also depend on the polymer used with the glass and the way it is extruded and coated. Some fiberglass only handles relatively mild temperatures - perhaps up to 150 °F while others may remain suitable for use at temperatures up around 300 °F. The limiting factor is the temperature at which the resin that is used with the fiberglass begins to degrade - most resins begin to degrade when they get above 150 °F although some can go much higher.
What physical conditions create high salinity water in the Red Sea and low salinity water in the Baltic Sea?
The Red Sea receives little rain fall and has high evaporation rates resulting in high-salinity water. The Baltic Sea contains low-salinity water as a result of abundant freshwater runoff from the surrounding land.
How much salinity is in fresh water?
I don't know how much salinity is in fresh water.
What is salinity used in a sentence?
The salinity of the ocean was much higher than I thought it would be.
What a salinity?
It is how much salt something has.
How much heat can aluminum metal stand?
Aluminum can withstand high temperatures up to around 600-700°C (1112-1292°F) before it starts to soften and lose its structural integrity. It has a relatively high melting point of about 660°C (1220°F).
How does a pultruded fiberglass grate compare to a molded fiberglass grate?
A pultruded fiberglass grateis much tougher and robust compare to a molded fiberglass grate. However, the better quality also comes with a higher cost.
How much salinity present in Pacific Ocean?
The salinity varies latitudinally. It's somewhere between about 3 and 5%.
How cold can a feist dog withstand?
What is a Feist dog? For your answer, how much cold can you withstand? Then that is your answer.
How much Salinity is in the tundra?
The salinity level in tundra environments is generally low due to limited sources of salt input and high precipitation levels that help dilute any existing salt content. However, salinity levels can vary based on factors such as proximity to coastal areas or human activity.
