I have two stones, one is very fine if I want to really get and edge or if I am touching up a blade on a wood plane.
The one I use most is a combination with one side fairly coarse and the other finer. The coarser side works great if you let the edge go a little too far then flip it over and finish it. Should work well on a boat.
