Sailing Computer
I have been following a very interesting set of posts on computers for sailboats. Pretty much everyone I know assumes the solution is a laptop. But some posters over at Sailing Anarchy have started with a different idea - a very small desktop. The advantage is that the unit is much cheaper than a laptop. Since it is also smaller it can be mounted in a location more protected from the elements.
You can link to the prototype concept here: http://www.rjjconsulting.com/sailing/obcomputer.htm
