Fresh water is one of the most essential elements aboard yachts. It's used for drinking, bathing and cleaning purposes.
Marine watermakers convert seawater to freshwater, filtering out salt, bacteria and other impurities. Systems range from manual to fully automatic operation.
What is its production process?
Yachts often boast large marine fresh water tanks with the capacity to store potable water for several days at a time. These larger reservoirs are commonly used to fill hot tubs, pools, boat systems and for routine deck washing tasks.
Reverse osmosis water makers transform seawater to fresh water by forcing it through a membrane that removes salt. This efficient process produces large volumes of clean water at a fraction of the cost of other desalination options.
FCI Watermakers' Neptune series produces up to 10,000 gallons of fresh water daily – enough for any large yacht. With its touch-free V4 control system, you have full access to start, make water, run diagnostics, shut down the machine and complete a freshwater flush without touching your watermaker.

How does it work?
Marine fresh water tanks often store unsanitary, unhealthy water that can breed bacteria. That's why boat owners must maintain a steady supply of high-purity drinking water in their tanks. Fortunately, marine reverse osmosis water makers offer the perfect solution: provide your crew with refreshingly pure, salt-free drinking water that has been treated against contaminants.
Reverse osmosis works by forcing seawater through a membrane that filters out salt from the liquid, producing water free of microorganisms and organic chemicals.
A marine reverse osmosis system can filter out sediments, dissolved and suspended particles from water. Additionally, it reduces phosphates present in seawater which may contribute to hard water buildup in faucets.
Some systems are fully automatic, requiring only a single button to turn them on and off. Others are semi-automatic, requiring manual flow rate monitoring.
A large yacht may need a reverse osmosis system to meet its freshwater needs, and it is essential that you select the appropriate model. For instance, cruisers with cabin cruiser interiors and limited freshwater use could benefit from a semi-automatic system; on the other hand, luxury sport yachts may benefit more from full automatic systems.
What is his contribution to the overall result?
Fresh water is essential when sailing a yacht. Not only for drinking and cooking, but also bathing, grooming and maintaining boat systems all need clean water to be successful. A marine fresh water tank may be used for these purposes but the quality of that water can differ between locations – particularly during tidal movements – and marine environments themselves can produce biofilms which do not support healthy living at sea.
FCI Watermakers' Neptune series provides large yachts with pure, safe water that's safe to drink and wash down with an intuitive system. It's ideal for dockside treatment when the boat connects to a marina's potable supply. This system eliminates 99% of total dissolved solids for spotless deck and hull rinsing in seconds.
