Testimonials

“For my Schenker Zen 50, I requested several quotes from suppliers and ended up purchasing from MAR nautic. Their customer service is world class, always answered my questions promptly and gave really good advice. Their website is very informative and they sell everything you will need to get your installation working. I did some pre-planning with MAR nautic and mocked up the system as it was being installed under the main salon seat at the table. I am in an isolated part of Malaysia at the Rebak Island Resort and Marina, so shipping was always going to be a big factor. As it turned out we had local holiday delays and airline disruptions, not any fault of MAR nautic, and the watermaker arrived packaged safely. Thanks to Maja for all her help and to Schenker for creating this amazing ZEN 50 water maker.“

Schenker ZEN 50 12V, shipped to Langkawi, Malaysia, in March 2024

“Shortly after a convincing phone call about a possible water treatment system, I ordered a Schenker ZEN 150 230V from MAR nautic for our Princess 56 Fly motorboat. My wish to be self-sufficient in the future and to have to visit fewer marinas is now feasible, because I can now produce a good 300 to 400 liters of drinking water with 2-3 generator hours each. The watermaker was placed on a free wall in the aft cabin. I converted an existing on-board outlet for the supply of seawater, and the water outlet is connected to an existing deck drain. This installation solution allows me to maintain the watermaker quickly and easily. I was able to carry out the complete installation myself thanks to the top advice I received in advance on collection and the subsequent Facetime briefings from and with Dominique at almost any time of day :).“

"For us as Swiss people, it was a plus to have a Schenker sales representative so close by that we could visit directly, both for advice and to pick up the device in person. After a detailed discussion on site, I was able to pick up the device in January 2024 and install it on our Dufour 410 GL in March. Everything went smoothly - from the initial contact to the immediate response to any outstanding questions during installation. We really appreciated the uncomplicated, yet highly professional manner. So a big thank you to Dominique and Maja, we will certainly recommend you to others! And we're already looking forward to fresh, home-produced water!"

Schenker ZEN 50 12V, picked up in Liechtenstein in January 2024

„For years, we did not consider a ‘watermaker’ as we assumed that the energy consumption and the complexity of the issue would exceed our benefit. In the end, we were convinced by the low energy consumption and compact design of the Schenker ZEN 30 and we set about planning the project. We found MAR nautic's offer on the internet and were impressed by the prompt response and friendliness of our supplier from the very first contact.
This service goes far beyond the sale. We were able to discuss the details of the fairly simple installation and commissioning with Dominique quickly, in a very knowledgeable and practical manner. The system has now been running smoothly for a few weeks and we are delighted to have another piece of independence on board. Using two 100W solar cells, we can operate the ZEN 30 directly. Many thanks to the MAR nautic team!“

Schenker ZEN 30 12V, December 2023

„We ordered a Schenker Smart 60 system from MAR nautic. Our SY PEGASUS, a Nortwind 47, was moored off Nuku Hiva on the Islas Marquesas. With Dominique, everything was carefully and professionally planned and ordered down to the last detail. This was so reliable and thorough that we were able to take the system with us in various pieces of luggage on the plane and install it ourselves on site. It was like a miracle and everything really worked out perfectly. Absolutely everything was included and nothing, absolutely nothing was missing. You could hardly plan and prepare an installation any better!
The watermaker has now been in use for almost 5 months without any complaints and we are extremely satisfied and happy, and are very grateful to have such a competent and helpful contact person at all times, even after the installation."

Schenker Smart 60 12V, shipped to Spain in November 2023

"It's amazing how little space the system can be installed in. The storage spaces for drinking water bottles are now empty. I have gained space. Dominique and his crew are always on hand with help and advice, which I really appreciate. Installing the watermaker became a matter close to my heart. MAR nautic and Dominique have a high level of expertise and make no compromises when it comes to quality. Together with the friendly approach from the first telephone contact, the result is a coherent picture."

“Already while planning our trip around the world, it was clear to us that we wanted to be as self-sufficient and sustainable as possible. Therefore, the installation of a watermaker was also on the agenda for the refit of our boat. Sailing friends recommended MAR nautic to us. We also quickly realized that MAR nautic offers competent, individual, super-friendly and personal customer service! Many thanks to Dominique for your help and advice! From the offer to the purchase, including collection on site, to the subsequent installation, you helped us a lot. Our Schenker ZEN 30 is compact, relatively easy to install, and it produces just enough drinking and everyday water for our crew of 2. We love the luxury of not having to carry water bottles and the freedom of not having to go to harbors or marinas to fill up with water."

Schenker ZEN 30 12V, picked up in Liechtenstein in August 2023

„During our search for a watermaker, we visited you in Eschen and were able to take the watermaker and all the accessories with us straight away. We were impressed by your friendly manner and expert advice. I was always able to count on Dominique's support when installing the ZEN 50 watermaker on our boat. During a virtual tour of our boat and the installation of the unit, he was able to show me some improvements, which I was then happy to implement.
I would like to express my praise and heartfelt thanks to these two great people for all their support and recommend anyone who is interested in a watermaker to contact them.“

“Dominique and Maja are an unbeatable team. They both have a wealth of knowledge about Schenker watermakers. The advice is right and thanks to the adaptation of the system to the individual conditions of the boat, successful operation is guaranteed. Thanks to the complete set supplied, installation is also feasible for non-professionals and the support is unique. Same-day support whenever possible. Thanks to your swift action, we were able to start our Pacific crossing without delay and with last-minute troubleshooting. I would therefore always recommend you and the Schenker watermakers to others.“

Schenker ZEN 50 12V, shipped to Switzerland in June 2023

"Our ZEN 30 is brilliant and has become indispensable for us. Our entire contact with MAR nautic was just as brilliant. From the first phone call to long after commissioning, the service was simply perfect and competent. Very comprehensive advice, great support with the detailed planning (via video call), detailed instructions on collection and, last but not least, quick help after I damaged a small part during assembly. In all of this, you can tell that they know a lot about long-distance sailing as well as their products. They also recommended useful accessories. We can't think of anyone better to buy a watermaker from (and we had contact with several suppliers at the time). And best of all, you don't pay extra for this comprehensive service and advice. The prices are very competitive."

"I was able to meet them in Liechtenstein before the order was placed. Great advice, all components could be viewed on site, so we found the perfect system for our ship - the Schenker ZEN 50, with which we are very satisfied. We were always in contact during the installation and so self-installation was no problem. We would buy from MAR nautic again."

"We bought a Schenker ZEN 30 24V watermaker for long distance sailing. Before the purchase, we were able to inspect all the components on site and received competent advice from Dominique in a very personal and courteous manner. We were also in contact by phone or WhatsApp during the installation and, in the event of problems, a solution was found quickly and competently, which was then successfully implemented. We can highly recommend MAR nautic and would use their services again at any time."

"Top customer service! If Schenker, then with MAR nautic. The project is talked through with you, all the extra parts are available and during installation we were always able to contact Dominique. Without this service we would have spent hours looking for all the parts for the installation at some "chandler". Just the way you want it - dedicated, competent and personal."
