I will be taking the coast guard course if I decide to get the boat

I've watched the boats heading out and more then once watched some guy in a brand new boat almost get nailed pulling out of the harbor.

Nothing worse then wrecking a new boat
If you're planning on running in/out the mouth of the Merrimack then you'll need something fairly seaworthy, 17 or 18' minimum, the mouth can get pretty rough, especially on the incoming. I would suggest learning how to handle your boat really well before attempting that spot on a rough day, lots of people have gotten into real trouble there when they didn't know what they were doing.
