Sailing With Phoenix | Oliver · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

Oliver installs a Schenker Zen 30 watermaker on his boat to ensure a reliable freshwater supply for long-distance, non-stop sailing.0:25 To avoid drilling new through-hulls, he repurposes an existing seawater intake previously used for an anchor washdown pump.3:40 He installs a vertical check valve on this intake line to prevent air suction and maintains the original pump as a potential spare.9:08 For the brine discharge, he routes the hose through the boat’s interior to exit near existing vents, avoiding the need for an additional hull penetration.3:53 He constructs a custom wooden mounting platform, contoured to the hull and secured with 3M 5200 adhesive, to support the unit and minimize vibration-induced fiberglass damage.18:41 The electrical installation includes a dedicated circuit breaker and control panel wiring.18:09 The project requires drilling multiple bulkhead holes to route hoses and cables while preserving storage space.12:10 Final mounting involves through-bolting the unit to the wooden platform to ensure structural stability.22:36
