Watermaker???

Deep C · 11-16-2008, 06:59 PM

Ok the Deep one is not all knowing all the time and when it comes to watermakers I'm a complete zilch... Looking to get one for our extended island work...
Don't need a big beast. We need something like 6-10 GPH... Enough to feed the eskimo and enough left over for wash downs... Past that I'm lost... Don't have a clue who makes a good one. Don't know about what maintainence they need... See a lot of confusing and contradictory stuff out there... Each time I think I might have found something I get taken back a few steps...
I'm in the need to know mode... Any help would be appreciated...

watermakers or beard marine in ft lauderdale / beards the guy who made your ice chipper and he makes his own de-sal units...

We got beard here too I'll check with them... If they want the kind of green they get for those eskimos as simple as they are I'll be shopping some place else though.
The boat came with the Eskimo. I could never jstify $12000 for a dinky compressor, ice auger, a few feet of pipe and a couple switches... Nice to have though...

Murray Marine in Riviera Beach is the dealer. They are the nicest units that I have had over the years. Low maintenance, quiet, self-rinsing to name a few features.
