Escapade's water tank holds about 48 gallons. With two aboard, ten
gallons per day usage would last us...little more than two days.
I suppose that is why some people pay the $$ for a watermaker. Our Irwin
38 only has a 70 gallon tank. You think that's bad? The holding tank is
only 8 gallons.
Don W. == who is in the process of figuring out where to put all the
additional tanks.
If I removed the 16hp diesel and its tank, I could add about 100 gallons of
water storage and gain a nice aft cabin to boot... lol
The best definition I've ever heard for a boat is "a floating collection of
compromises."
