Talking Basswood

I just purchased a quantity of basswood on ebay. I understand its an easy wood to work with and I know its used for fresh water plugs alot. My question is, I never hear you guys talking about basswood, Is there a problem in saltwater applications?
Do any of you have experience with basswood?
And finally, since its 1" stock, I'd like to glue some up for 2" Pikies.
Is this advisable, and what kind of glue is best.
I'm wondering if it will be safe to turn glued up lumber.
I believe someone mentioned doing this before, but I'd like a little reassurance.
Thanks, I know some of you guys will have the answers.
