ABSTRACT:
The present invention is related to a method and apparatus for filtering or straining water taken into a marine vessel so as to remove solid contaminants that may impede operation of water consuming devices on the vessel such as electrical generators, air conditioners, refrigeration systems, propulsion engines and the like. Solid contaminants retained by a filter or strainer are collected and then macerated and removed by a macerator pump. The solid contaminants removed and macerated include marine weeds, grasses, solid matter and marine organisms, including, but not limited to jellyfish and fish of such size as may be able to enter the sea water intake served by the invention. The water so treated may be fresh, brackish or salt water.
