I think one of the biggest problems with desalinization pumps is the amount of water that must be pumped through the system to produce clear water. We recently purchased a PUR Survivor 06 for an emergency life raft for our sailboat. It is rated +AEA- 2 +ADw-two+AD4- pints of water an +ACo-hour+ACo-. So if you pump +ACo-all+ACo- day +ADw-24 hours+AD4- you get a whopping 6 +ADw-six+AD4- gallons. With those kinds of figures, I'm not sure how much time I can afford to spend pumping vs. hassle of number of gallons carried. I guess we'll have nothing but time if we get stranded in our liferaft+ACE- +AD0-O Hopefully we won't have a review of how it worked. +ADsAXg-) Steve +ADw-leaving for the sea on Thursday+AD4- Scherrer Alder Creek Kayak and Canoe 250 NE Tomahawk Isle Dr Portland, OR 97217 Phone: 503.285.0464 Fax: 503.285.0106 Web site: http://www.aldercreek.com Email: acks+AEA-teleport.com +AF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8- *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sun Sep 26 1999 - 00:25:54 PDT
