I have been happy with several MiniPure UV system that I have had. I have
used them as point of use and, in my last boat, after the water maker prior
to going into the tanks. Smallest unit consumes about 14 watts.

Does anyone have recommendations on a brand of UV water purifier?
There seem to be one heckuva lot of manufacturers and I'd like to weed
it down before starting.

Dick,

UV does not "purify" water. With a high enough single dose, or constant
recirculation at a lower dose, you can "sanitize" water, and you can break
down dissolve ozone. With the amount of power you'd want to consume on a
boat, you'd be hard pressed to accomplish much with a UV unit.
