Personally I would be looking at ND grad hard edge, to balance the sky and sea.

of those two polarizer for seascapes every time. As above it may be worth adding a grad for the sky.

no - it does a different job from a polariser. Your grad balances light and dark bitys of a scene, but your polariser cuts down reflected light, so less glare of water, bluer skies, fluffier clouds, grate saturation on plants etc.. etc..........
