A new Blue Water watermaker installation on the catamaran Calypso replaces a Spectra unit that had chronic performance problems.▶ 0:14 Jeremiah commissions the new system at anchor in a nearby inlet rather than the marina, avoiding contaminated marina water during the initial run.▶ 0:06 The boost pump takes repeated priming attempts before it catches, and three leaks surface — two from the installation fittings, one from a product-water line — all fixed by hand-tightening.▶ 6:43 Once running, the unit produces 27–30 gallons per hour drawing roughly 47 amps DC, approximately three times the output the Spectra managed.▶ 5:43 Low-pressure inlet reads 24.6 psi; high-pressure inlet holds around 150 psi.▶ 7:11 The pickled membrane requires a 30-minute flush before water goes to the tanks.▶ 5:55 Separately, heavy pollen buildup had tripped the solar charge controller; wiping the panels and resetting the circuit breaker restored output.▶ 2:53 Calypso currently carries 800 watts of solar; a haul-out is booked to install a stainless arch and expand capacity to 2,500 watts with additional panels and MPPTs.▶ 3:36 Brittany recovers from a flu dockside while the work proceeds.▶ 1:16 Priming a watermaker boost pump in a new installation may require cracking a line to bleed air before the pump will hold prime.
