Watermaker Usage Question: I have an old Spectra

I have a question about using water makers when you stay somewhere for a while.


I tend to stay in a location for two weeks or a month sometimes. possibly even longer at times.

how do you get water when you are anchored in a harbor for a month?

do you just run the water maker and then change filters more often or something?

do you have to go to the dock and keep filling tanks and pickle the water maker?

do you just jug the water?

I want to get my watermaker in service during the summer and I can’t really see how I’m going to use it when I am in a harbor for a while. Easy enough to fill up the tanks when you are actively traveling. But when you are staying somewhere, then what?

I can already picture of the girls I will be having out to visit and the showers they will be wanting.

Lots and lots of water.

and I’ll probably have to take a shower as well. You don’t want to know how long 50 gallons of water lasts me. Ha ha ha.
