fiddles might object to the humidity and salt
and may not have been taken to sea--
concertinas are more likely compatible
with ocean environment[endof quote]
sorry,concertinas are very temperamental and extremely sensitive to weather conditions,fiidles are a little better suited,but still not ideal,jaws harps are excellent,as are nose flutes.
