Since a quite a number of reviews have it sitting in a container of water, I'm not sure why you don't buy the waterproofness. Also it has an IP67 certification that it can take 3 ft for 30 minutes which a large company like Kobo isn't going to claim unless it really has it.
Since the salt can't get in anywhere the water can't the worst case would be if it stained the case of the device and likely a quick wash with water would solve that.
