Competition has just closed and the winner will be announced in our next video this Friday (2/2/2024) :D Good luck everyone!

Well done! The only way to improve water maker water is to freeze it and cover it with good Bourbon. 8 hours, 30 minutes for install. If I’m correct, give the prize to people in need that you meet along the way. We ran our water maker an hour everyday, never had a problem with the membrane. My brother ran his once a week and had to replace the membrane in less than a year.

I work for the coast guard and we end up drinking a lot of water maker made water lol. It’s strips a lot of the good minerals out of the water highly recommend getting a re-mineralizer of some sort or liquids drops. I notice the lack after awhile, While on ship.

Back in the dark ages (I'm talking 1970s) I owned a centre cockpit 45ft trimaran of a New Zealand Hartley design (or at least I think it was, the only other Hartleys I ever saw were 35ft). She was a bit of a beast and very basic, to say the least. I sailed her from Darwin to Fiji with the aid of a humongous but rather beautiful bronze compass, paper charts and a sextant. No other fancy navigational stuff on my boat, although I did have a depth finder and ship-to-shore radio that was only useful getting into or out of ports. I did have a small freezer and one tiny first-generation solar panel the size of a small bedroom window, but no lithium batteries, of course. A water maker? Well, no, I had two water tanks and the rest of my water was in a couple of hundred large plastic bottles stored in the outside hulls. Those were the days, I tell you.

I have a feeling you two knocked it out quickly, so 6 hours and 30 min. Nice job.

10hrs? Great ro see you still tackling the projects head on 👌😊

Heat the wire with the iron, then touch the solder to the hot wire, let the wire suck the solder in.

I’m going to guess 13 hours and 34 minutes, always a difficult process that takes longer than expected doing boat work. Good luck and keep up the good work 🤠

That's a project we haven't tackled...yet! Nicely done! I figure it took you 10 hour and 23 minutes (and 17 seconds)

Having see many of yours videos and projects and guessing on yours manual abilities I go with 13 hrs 35 min. Saludos from Puerto Rico.🛥🛥

6 hours and 1minutes. Thank you for showing guys.

My guess is 9 hours and 17 minutes. Good job on the installation and I hope that I win… I need a new one for my boat!

11 :47 good job love the show.

Great Job Guys - thanks. A Seawater pro system definitely seems to be the way to go 👌👏

I’ve got one best value system and always great volumes of water made👍

That’s a thing of beauty! 9:46

I don't but on my boat everything always turns into a big projects but if everything as usual I'm guessing 12 Hrs. Good Luck!

The 'no internet' bit would be a deal breaker for me 😆 With internet I feel I could do anything. I had no mechanical experience whatsoever when I decided to fix my motorcycle engine, which needed a gear cog replacement. To reach the gearbox the engine (and motorcycle) had to be completely dismantled, a fairly modern injection 4-cylinder. Anytime I had an issue or was unsure how to proceed the internet was there to ask. I was even able to do a valve adjustment, another thing most of my more mechanical inclined friends wouldn't do themselves. Cool to see you it worked and no sparks smoke or leaks when you flipped that switch 😁I hear one should keep some spare parts on the boat in case it breaks down in the middle of nowhere!

I recon 10hrs. Great work, not sure how you stay so smiley in those tight places. Also don’t you have to regularly change the filters, that could cause some upturned smiles.

I‘m guessing about 12 hrs. Nice job guys! 👍

A total of 11 hours and 15 minutes. Most people who do videos of work projects or installing something on a boat or very boring however you both have just a special way of doing your videos that they are all extremely interesting. Just love you guys your personality is just top notch You seem to be a perfect match God bless safe sailing

You guys are so much fun to watch ❤❤❤ Keep it up guys!!

I consider myself pretty good with handyman type of stuff, and that would easily take me more then a day. Mainly because I would be so worried about leaking etc i would over engineer everything, lol. So my guess is 14ish hours total over 2 days.

Greetings. Four days start to finish(96 hrs.). 40 hrs. of actual work time.

Bravo pour l'installation, j'admire Darcy d'avoir travailler dans ce tout petit emplacement, et Yvette pour ses talents de bricoleuses. Pour le temps, je dirais 9h17. Gros bisous et bon vent.

It's easier if you get the tubes that go over the wires you won't have to solder them together only heat.

8 hours and 45 minutes ?? Ok would love the water maker for my Sabre 36. Been a live aboard for the winter but had to go back to a job in the office.

Well done you two another great smiley video,I would guess at 12 hours and 45 minutes. Keep the videos coming I luv um.xxxxxx

😊❤ love you're show you guys you guys are always so happy and smiling. Wonderful. Continue the fantastic job you guys are doing have a great trip.

No matter how long it took, good job! I reckon it took 10hrs 32min start to finish. ... Any word on the wind/autopilot situation? Yvette, both those outfits were cute!! Favorite color Rust/orange? I think Darcy's is blue. --Jerry

Hi guys, enjoy your videos, I am guessing 6 hours. Safe travels. From Brisy Australia.

Great job with that wodamaga, fresh water is the best (after beer of course ) 😊 see ye tomorrow
