Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink. The idea of being at sea began when I was very young and enraptured with stories in a survival book, frequently of downed airmen adrift in the ocean.
Water enters the sea chest and is strained. It then passes through a 2" ball valve and to a saltwater aquarium pump.
Boost Pump: - Likely not needed as the high pressure pump will be below the waterline.

Pressure Switch - If we add a boost pump it would supply saltwater for research projects, wash down, and plumbing so it would be convenient to have an automatic pressure switch.
Pre-filters for Watermaker water only, not the wash down supply path.
