Introducing the Fully Automatic Explorer XT Watermaker

Introducing the Fully Automatic Explorer XT Watermaker

The Blue Water Desalination team revealed our latest innovation in water purification during the 2022 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. The all-new Explorer XT is a robust, expandable system designed to fit almost any available space. With capacities from 475 to 1,800 GPD, the Explorer XT is a welcome new standard for mid-sized to large yachts.
Boasting fully automatic operation, the new Explorer XT is offered in multiple configurations to fit the needs of most yachtsmen and the space of nearly any boat. The flexible footprint combined with an impressive production capability of up to 75 gallons per hour (284 liters per hour) makes the Explorer XT an ideal fit for new yachts and refits.
This latest watermaker builds upon the same leading-edge technology as our popular Express XT Series, offering mariners pure water at the touch of a button. Plus, three different configurations including a compact frame and one-piece & two-piece modular controllers ensure that the installation can be customized to fit almost any available space.

Rationing Water is a Thing of the Past for Remote Charter Fishing Fleet

Rationing Water is a Thing of the Past for Remote Charter Fishing Fleet

Casa Vieja Lodge Anglers enjoy endless water thanks to Blue Water Desalination

There comes a point in every captain and boat owner’s career where a piece of equipment that once was seen as a luxury becomes a straight-up necessity. Captain David Salazar, owner/operator of the Casa Vieja Fishing Lodge in Guatemala, recently reached that tipping point with the water supplies aboard several of his fleet’s custom sportfish boats. Captain Salazar explains, “With only so many gallons in the freshwater tanks, we were literally rationing water gallon-by-gallon during our day and overnight fishing trips.”

Blue Water Desalination’s Managing Director, Jim Santa has known Captain Salazar for many years, so it was an easy decision for Salazar to seek out Jim’s advice on equipping the fleet with marine watermakers. “I’ve known Jim for a long time, and our friendship definitely played a role in choosing Blue Water, but the quality and advanced features of the products helped seal the deal,” he explained.

Never Run Out of Water Again

This is what you do when you have unlimited water in Avalon Harbor.

Bob Flaig, owner of the M/V Fighting Irish, keeping his hull clean with water from his Blue Water Desalination Express 600 GPD watermaker.

This is what he has to say about his experience with Blue Water.

I purchased the Bluewater Desalination Express 600 water maker and I am very happy with it. It is easy to use. Just hit one button and you are making water in seconds. This system converts 25 gallons per hours of Salt Water into 99% pure drinking water. Now I do not have to conserve water in my 39 foot Bayliner boat on long weekends spent on the mooring in Avalon and have enough water to wash down my boat after making the 30 mile trek across the channel from Huntington Beach to Avalon. I have fresh water toilets and an ice maker so now I do not have to worry about having to fill up my water tank at the pump out station. Over this past summer I ran out of water three times. What a bummer. I had to go bring water in 5 gallons jugs from the pump out station where water costs 25 cents for 5 gallons. Cost of water is not issue, but carrying the water from the pump out dock and pouring it into my water tank is time consuming process. Now I can get other work done and though I have to use my generator to power the water maker I can still charge my batteries at the same time.
I love using water and now making water.

Also, very happy with the install that Mike Scott with Crew West / Oceans Marine Electronics did.

Regards,
Bob Flaig
