[C38] Watermakers

Fri Sep 16 02:15:24 EDT 2011

Our watermaker has a bypass in that it tests the water first and once the salinity reaches an acceptable point it then routes it to the tank, prior to that it sends it out the discharge hose.   Good point about the vitamins I never thought of that, makes good sense.

One of the issues with water makers is, when you start to make water you DO NOT want it going into your water tank, you want it to go into another source so you can determine if the water is good or not.  You DO NOT want to pollute your water tank.  Hence the flow into a spigot in our head so we can test the water BEFORE routing it into the water tank.  Another thing you might want to keep in mind, you should take vitamins with minerals if you are going to drink extended water made from a water maker.

We have an older PUR 35E that mounts to the bulkhead under the V-berth and draws water from a thru-hull through and filter in the space between the water tank bulkhead and the finish bulkhead in the V-berth and fills the tank through a fitting at the top of a Tee fitting at the water fill inlet. It is not as efficient as newer models, but it came with the boat!!!

	Has anyone ever installed a watermaker on their C-38. If so, I would like to know what type and where they installed it. As we plan on taking off for blue waters and white sand next spring, any help would be appreciated!

	Thanks

		Was this link on the list a couple of days ago?  Maybe I found it somewhere else, I don't remember.  Anyway, here's a great site that shows the Yankee 38 rudder clearly.

			I've never seen a Yankee 38, but  I read that one of the modifications that Frank Butler did to the 38 was replacing the skeg mounted rudder for a spade rudder. Also said that the mast was replaced for a taller one with small boom, but still, hull #1 came with the Yankee  mast... So, who knows...  Could there be a 38 with skeg rudder??    We have noticed many differences between early and later models during this year, so who knows... Butler, perhaps??
