Could have an rv style pump for drawing into your boat ,hooked to a tap or whatever then build a manifold and T it into a manifold to feed a small pressure washer then just run your pressure washer through a membrane tube like you have and fill your tank. Have a fitting on your wand so you can pop it off pop on your membrane. Switch back and presto you have a high pressure wash down pump also . Im just an armchair engineer FYI 😉

Things I've learned about the icw: if you love sailing then don't bother - you will wear out your engine.

One thing I didn't see covered was how much you set sail as opposed to motoring? Is it not feasible to just do some inshore sailing just outside of the ICW? Or was it not feasible to go in and out so frequently? Does anyone do that? Were you motoring most of the way, or sailing? That would be interesting to know! Thanks,

Well done but need right tools .

Just wondering whether you think that your Pumptec pump is underpowered? The folks at HCTI have warned me that the membrane you are using may need a higher powered pump than the one you are currently using. I preference is to build the system you have built, which is a gift to many of us who want to stay away from high-priced proprietary technology. Thank you.

We have a updated van subfloor installation video from our latest DIY Campervan build in 2024! Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/jZIJPrdk83A/w-d-xo.html

We recently published an updated version of this video when we insulated our latest DIY Campervan Build! We talk about what we learned from this build and give all sorts of tips and tricks! th-cam.com/video/GB8HV7jLiaU/w-d-xo.html

Hello, you have built a watermaker with pumptec pump. Do you know were the optional regulator of 1000 psi goes. Thanks a lot 😊

We've had pistol shrimp munching on our hull in Taylor's Creek in Beaufort, NC. in 2024.

Did you screw into the metal bottom of the van or on to ferring strips?

I would love to get advice about makeup!!!!! Also!!!! What is a great soap to clean the wood cabinets with? Murphy's?

What size mantis anchor are you using and are you happy with it? Thanks so much for all the info!!!

Just another sailboat that should just be a motor boat.

Just a tip from a commercial pressure washing guy....try the Blue Devil Brand pipe tape. It is the go-to for high pressure fittings...available at Lowes etc. ( Tape is actually blue in color)

Glad to see you back. The c word is no longer a death sentencenmy wife and i know from expetiance. Wel you wont need to make a reverse osmosis. Will you do the same hotwater heater? Was that satisfactory for 2 showers

So is this aprox 20 watts per minute when in use ? Thank you

I screwed up and took out my fuse box for my truck in which I didn’t have to do but we live and we learn right but I just want to say I found ur video on google and you do a very well explanation on how to use a crimper and definitely made my life a whole lot easier to fixing my screw up 😅

They didnt really tell us what materia,ls you used to stick it down just a waste of time watching this

I would have hired an aluminum welder

Great info! A couple of questions. What is the draft and weight of your boat. What anchor are you using any recommendations on anchors. Do you ever use a stern anchor? Thanks!!! 😁🇺🇸

Where's the demonstration? And any upgrades?

Very nice to see these initial steps.

good video, upgrades I haven't seen in other videos. No link to the insulated ducting?

Excellent! Just what I've been waiting for someone to do! So - are you selling the complete assembly and install instructions as well? I'd buy those, as how else am I going to figure that all out? Fair winds 😀👍🏻🙏🏻

Guys...how is your watermaker today, two years ago?

You never showed the uninsulated

Well made and informative video, thanks.

How much pressure is the fiberglass presumably designed to withstand? Also, why the needle valve and not a ball, gate or other design? I suspect it is for fine/granular control but curious if other valves are possible? And maybe a passive pressure regulator?

Fiat power!! Doing Italy proud😂

What is that movie scene from? Looks like das boot but the actor looks a little like james bond (but not sure which). Wasn't there a scene like that in no time to die? Don't remember haha But it's ingenius and I will consider this! Watermakers are just so expensive, oh my god.

Very good ! excellent camera work. 😄

Thank you! This is the first "nuts and bolts" video ive seen!

uh that’s island is eerie and the locals are friendly, but weird af ! The wharf ..👁️

Great vid, thanks

The exhaust should come out thru the transom because it's a sailboat? You have no goose neck in the exhaust so instead you have that drainage pipe, but doesn't that let exhaust inside the boat?

How loud is the system while running? Im worried that having to run it all day may be annoying?

Appreciate your explanations and how to’s!

But now you need the reverse osmosis part as there are some minerals you need and get from your drinking water. Also look into a prefilter to keep sediment out 9:53

As a cruiser who has built several watermaker I now build a bigger capacity watermaker at least 100l per HR, 200 per HR is better, run it for an hour and forget about it for a few days

Wow, $9k for a ProMaster is incredible! We're totally amazed and confident that you guys will stay under your $30k budget. We can't wait to watch and learn so much from yall! 💕

Whoop whoop! They're back 🙌 We're so excited you guys are on land for some fun land adventures 🚐🐶🚐🐶

Gilmerton bridge is Military Hwy.

Wow that turned out to be a really good deal considering that you now have a rebuilt transmission that you shouldn’t have to worry about for a long time. My biggest concerns with the promaster are the transmission and cam/rocker arm issues. Did you do the transmission swap yourself, or was the install included in the ~$6K?

I just found your channel from the live aboard sailing podcast and I have to say, I like how you do everything quickly without too much fluff in the editing. Started kind of far back in the videos to get caught up on the progress

My son on his boat he's using a dehumidifier and it runs around the clock any produces a good bit of water apparently he said about 5 10 gallons a day going count the humidity so high around the ocean what are y'all think That's what he's doing hey I think he cost him 200 bucks The one he's got does have a holes on it plus it also has a pump in it to pump the water he bought it I think it's $186 you paid for it I didn't know it would work but he says it does so what do y'all think

Salt water needs pre filtered. And system needs backflushed daily

My foamboards keep popping back out to straight ripping every method i have used, to adhere to the courve of the van, apart. Im about to be out cash and spending more then needed just to get the thinsulate material.

While SD cards don't die on a regular basis, I have used my Mavic3 with the RC Pro to record in two locations, plus you have the gimbal to keep the video rock solid. Some build a unit to mount it to hold it solidly and safely.

Why not listed the products used so people know what to buy and where?!

But how did you manage to fit the fan trim? Did you need to cut it? You barely had 3 inches of thickness on the roof with insulation. The fan trip is like 8 inches high
