West Marine has a product called Salt Away that works pretty well for
a lot less money:

Interesting. I take it the Neutra Salt isn't a concentrate in the
gallon bottle?

Main ingredients are deionized fresh water and vinegar.

You literally can make your own for pennies.

I would imagine that a gallon of Summer's Eve would cost more than
$38.

So what you are saying is that this is nothing more than a feminine
hygiene system?

Most boats are referred to as "she" aren't they? :-) Makes perfect sense to
me.

What scares me though, is that you are up on the product names! :-

Try living with three women for 20 years.

You learn things you never wished you learned.

You would probably need to add some cheap perfume to make it so.
Wouldn't claim to be well versed on what goes into the stuff that goes
int....(never mind).

It's also possible to substutute distilled water for deionized and get
close to the same results. (Referring, once again, to an engine.)
Deionized water has all of the little mineral elements (ions) filtered
out through a reverse osmosis filter, while distilled water is
purified strictly by the generation, condensation, and reclamation of
steam. In either case, stripping the fresh water of any existing
mineral load increases the water's capacity to absorb sodium and other
minerals present in sea salt and the vinegar "knocks it loose". :-)

Distilled water is available for under a buck a gallon in most grocery
stores.
(I use it for battery fills). Deionized water is harder to come by,
but if your boat has an RO watermaker the final product might be
pretty close. Other good sources for deionized water are automotive
detail shops and drive-through
car washes. Deionized water provides a superior rinse for automotive
and marine finishes with less risk of "spotting". The RO filters for
creating deionized water are expensive to buy, operate, and service so
don't be surprised if the guy at the car wash or the detail shop wants
a couple of bucks for a few gallons of rinse water. If you're having
your car washed or detailed, you might be able to talk the operator
out of a couple of gallons for free.
