Well, you really can't compare shore to boat diving without considering what the shore diving is like. If it's Nova Scotia, you do just drive up to the shore, park right off the road, and walk into the water. If it's Connecticut you're probably going to pay somebody to park somewhere--and maybe a fairly long walk. If Long Island you're lucky if the parking area is even available to "non-town" residents. Then again, if you do a charter you deal with all their timelines. If you do private boat diving there are another bunch of things to worry about (launching, docking, gas, will the motor conk out, etc.). So it is fair to say you have to consider the conditions for either type of diving before saying one is better than the other.
I don't know what rinsing gear has to do with it. You have to do it thoroughly and store properly after any dive.
