**Update 2021/11/16**
It's been over two and a half years since we installed our watermaker. It has been performing flawlessly ever since and has afforded us some well-needed and appreciated self-sufficiency throughout the Mediterannean (where marinas are super expensive), through ocean crossings (yeay for showers) and through covid lockdowns (where we had zero possibility to get water otherwise).
We added a control panel in our galley which has been incredibly practical and have upgraded the membrane to the latest SeaWater Pro one. We've been buying filters and parts in hardware stores all over the World (way easier than having to order proprietary parts) and we produce 19-20 gallons (70-75 liters) of fresh water per hour.
Two and a half years later, we also received an affiliate link to SeaWater Pro watermakers, which allows us to receive a small commission on purchases made through it, at no extra cost to you! So if you are in the process of acquiring your own, it would mean a lot to us if you considered using it :)

April 2019:
It took us a while to produce this video about how to install a DIY watermaker, as we wanted to really test out our installation and put it to the test.
We are absolutely delighted with our watermaker and the water production that we get out of it, especially at the price that we payed for it compared to of-the-shelf branded watermaker such as Ecotech, Spectra, rainman or aquabase watermakers.
In this video, Ryan explains how to install a DIY watermaker, that is a watermaker that you build from scratch with parts that you source yourself.
We go through what to think about before buying parts, how to power your watermaker, where to install it, how to buy all the parts for your watermaker, the tools that you will need to install your units and what to expect when you assemble all your parts.
Finally, we give you a tour of our own watermaker installation and analyze the results we get from it.
