Installation of a DIY watermaker on the 10-year refit project vessel *BrewPeg* involves fabricating stainless steel and aluminum mounting brackets for the membrane, gauges, and DC pump within the engine room.▶ 1:20 The system utilizes a DC pump to draw water from a dedicated seacock through a strainer and filter assembly before feeding the membrane.▶ 2:21 The crew mounts the membrane housing using rubber-lined stainless straps and T-clamps, positioning the pressure gauges and needle valve for centralized control.▶ 2:39 Plumbing the system requires custom routing with 90-degree fittings and reducers to accommodate tight clearances, particularly for the high-pressure line exiting the membrane.▶ 7:53 The installation process involves lubricating O-rings with food-grade grease and securing the membrane with half-moon locking caps.▶ 6:01 Progress stalls due to a lack of specific plumbing fittings, forcing the crew to cannibalize parts from a separate fuel transfer system project.▶ 14:48 The high-pressure hose from the pump also presents a clearance issue, as the existing bend radius exceeds the available space between the mounted unit and the bulkhead.▶ 16:07
