SailAway 81 | Sailboat Cruising Prep - Reinstalling a Wonky Watermaker | Sailing Around The World

WATERMAKER PARTS EVERYWHERE!! Fixing a WONKY Install and TESTING IT OUT! As our departure from the US grows more imminent, the "tech" videos keep coming...this week, the watermaker! Happily, our boat came with a pretty nice Spectra watermaker. Sadly, it was installed by lunatics from an insane asylum. After much studying and inspection, it seemed less and less likely it was ever really used, especially considering the primary intake wasn't run properly. AND they had eliminated our microwave space and had run numerous hoses all the way to that space in the galley where they had mounted the valve panel. Nope. We decide to basically start over and consolidate all the pieces parts. But becoming less and less sure this thing was ever stored properly...will it actually make water that won't kill us?? Enjoy!! And be sure to SUBSCRIBE for WEEKLY CONTENT EVERY FRIDAY! Cheers!! Thanks for watching SailAway, the travel documentary of an adventurous sailing couple, plus toddler and dog, sailing the world!
