X-40
An established European builder offers a strong offshore performer with good looks, a few interesting twists, and only one or two minor flaws.

Washdown Pumps
If you need a lot of flow—and have the dough—get the Groco. Otherwise, we like the two models from Johnson and the $85 SHURflo.

Headings: Future Fixture or Fancy Fad?
Every four years, solo sailing luminaries assemble in France to race non-stop around the world in the Vendée Globe, and the equipment aboard their boats deserves examination as a harbinger of what we may some day see aboard our own boats.

Salt Fighters
To go that extra step in protecting your boat and engine from salt, consider these products. We tested five, and Salt-Away is our top pick.
