Why do I need a Reverse Osmosis Desalinator (watermaker)?
An on board Reverse Osmosis Desalinator (watermaker) is economical and saves the boat owner money in many respects. Boat wash downs with demineralized water leaves no spots, requiring no laborious drying time and protects rigging and hull. It saves thousands of dollars in rigging and hundreds of hours in labor. No more buying water, no more trip diversions to buy water, and no more bacterial and virus attacks. Water weighs 8.3 pounds per gallon. Storing minimal amounts of water and being able to make more as needed each day reduces the weight and draft of the boat, which saves fuel and allows more space for storage or fuel tanks to take longer voyages. With a Reverse Osmosis Desalinator (watermaker) on board, you will use fresh water for more things and will not have to conserve while enjoying your voyage much more with safety. You will have peace of mind, all the while saving time and money.
