¿Qué cubre este video?

Huub replaces a 15-year-old watermaker with a new Sea Water Pro 40-gallon-per-hour system while docked in Puerto Rico.▶ 3:51 The decision to upgrade stems from the old unit's rusted feed pump and cracked housing, which posed a reliability risk for an upcoming Pacific crossing.▶ 4:57 Because Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, the owner avoids high international shipping costs and import duties on the heavy equipment.▶ 3:51 The installation involves mounting a new control panel, securing filter housings, and wiring the pump for 220-volt power.▶ 9:31 The owner reuses existing through-hull fittings and stainless steel mounting plates to minimize new holes in the hull.▶ 8:03 Although the system is plumbed and wired, the final assembly remains incomplete because the reverse osmosis membranes were out of stock and will be transported separately.▶ 12:37 The owner also investigates a persistent, slow leak in the bilge, suspecting a potential crack in the bottom of the freshwater tank, though the source remains unconfirmed.▶ 1:52
