Craigslist Sea Recovery 12V Water maker?! (EP 18)

[@joewilliams918]

I recently bought a SeaRecovery water maker on Craigslist too. It was missing the sea strainer and boost pump. Your video will help me on installing it.

That’s what boating is about, sharing and leaning on one another. Congratulations on the purchase. We have 150 hrs on ours in the last two seasons and haven’t had the slightest issue. Use it like you stole it!

Very smart move to install a fresh water maker for several reasons. Jugs of water are a very heavy payload never mind the taste of plastic after being stored for months. Never mind the recycling storage headache. More payload greater fuel burn. If you like your morning coffee crisp, then so much for water. We humans are 60% water and we don’t live well or long without fresh water. Swimming in salt water, fun for sure, washing in the same not fun for sure. She who must be obeyed will appreciate you being able to shower. When out to sea and anchored you’ll want to wash down the decks with fresh water. You’ve saved on (future) extra fuel burn, manual labour in storage and thousands of dollars on a brand new used fresh water system. Damn smart then again most of us geniuses are!😁🍺

Thank you for the compliment and great points! We just spent a couple weeks, mostly on the hook. We have nearly 100hrs on the water maker so far (about 650 gallons). It’s extended our outings by 5 to 6x, without hitting land. Money well spent.

Can you share the techs name, contact info? I purchased a boat with an older Sea Recovery system that does 60gph and need to get some instructions.
