rh,
The seats are actually a Beryllium Copper alloy with only a very small percentage of Beryllium. They are supposed to dissipate heat very well so should be good in a marine application. I doubt that there is any danger from machining them unless you are using sanding rolls and breathing the dust as you go. Most machine shops use carbide cutters to cut the seats anyway. They do seem to be a bit softer than steel seats.
