Re: Used Watermaker - Spectra VT-150

Thread is getting more action now that I don't think I am going to sell it. All this is thread drift, but who knows maybe it will be useful to someone.

Re: Used Watermaker - Spectra VT-150

Well no one seems to what it, even when they could have saved $1000 off the current asking price for the cost of 9 Q-tips. So I am going to keep it.

Re: Spectra VT-150 Used for sale

Well you aren't first in line and the line is still forming. Anyone can cut to the front of the line by showing up with cash!

Re: Spectra VT-150 Used for sale

Any boater in FL/GA/SC can rent a car for the day for $100and come get this. I don't know about others, but the...

Re: Spectra VT-150 Used for sale

Some nice clean RO water sure tastes great after a hot day of humping water pails to the boat! If only there was a great deal to be had to get a unit.

Re: Spectra VT-150 Used for sale

It sure was nice having this in the Bahamas earlier this year. I had been there a couple of times without a watemaker, but having one was big boat life improvement.
