What I can't figure out is why someone hasn't created a dry exhaust
stack distiller! All the heat you'd ever need is just dumped up the
stack on many nice boats that COULD be making clean water whenever the
engine was running....

They used to make yacht size stills that ran on the waste heat from
the engine. They got more than a gallon of water per gallon of fuel
burned, so you carry fuel instead of water, and have more range.
