You will need a suitable engine with room to fit an engine bracket and pulley system. We have some standard brackets available or custom fabrication is required. Output is 80, 160, or 240 litres per hour of water using 1, 2, or 3 standard membranes. Power usage is approx. 2HP draw from the engine.

Generation 3 Stella Watermaker Options
Auto Flush
Makes it easier to maintain your watermaker if you are not making water or on the boat every week to perform a manual flush. All watermaker membranes need to be freshwater flushed after each use and then every 7 days if not pickled for storage to avoid damage to the membrane. Our auto-flush system includes a box with a dual timer and solenoid valve to flush your system with water from your boat’s tank for a few minutes every 7 days.
Spares Kit
All the consumables you need for 6-12 months cruising (depending on usage). Includes: 3x 20-micron seawater filters, 3x 5-micron seawater filters, 1x 5-micron charcoal (carbon) filter, 1x 500g pickling solution (for membrane storage), 1x 1lt HP pump oil.
