O.T.- Chrome plating on salt water boat items??

Today I had a guy telling me that chrome does not stand up to the
weather and environment of a boat that is used in salt water. Now we
are not talking about a propeller here, but various chrome trinkets
around the boat, such as wakeboard racks, speaker enclosures, shifter
knobs, etc.
I was under the impression that chrome was a pretty good coating for
such applications, but did not want to argue for fear of jamming my
foot in my mouth. I know this is a pretty resourceful group when it
comes to random bits of manufacturing related information....(remember
the 900 post thread about the corrosion on the Fadal toolchanger??) .
So, does anybody know where to find any decent online reference
material for chrome plating's resistance to a salt water environment? I
searched around on Google for a few minutes, but could not find
anything of relevance.
