Static-Free Satellite Radio: XM and SiriusDigital Satellite Audio Radio promises near-CD quality digital sound, but it hasn't taken off as expected.

Freshwater Pumps It's not just a fast flow-rate, but lack of noise, ease of plumbing, amp draw, and compact size that can make the difference in pumps.

Foul Weather Jackets The Henri Lloyd Rapid Coastal takes top honors among coastal jackets, followed by our Best Buy, the Ronstan Inshore. Of the offshore jackets tested, we like the Gill Atlantic best. 406 MHz EPIRBs The ACR Global Fix 406 with internal GPS is our top pick, followed by the Pains Wessex SOS Precision. The NAT Satfind is about $200 cheaper but lacks an integral GPS. Four Winns 298 Vista Three berths, lounge seats, head, galleyFour Winns does a good job of packing it all into this girthy 28-footer.
