Default Watermakers - what's best and cheapest for long term cruising use

Due to bacterial growth you will have to operate the watermaker every
3-4 days. That's the only disadvantage of such a system (my 2cts worth
experience till now)....


If back-flushed thoroughly with fresh water you can run them much less
frequently than that.
