Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] message from delivery captain input

Good afternoon Olivier,

I am reading with lots of interest all your detailed explanations on the fuller…

If you don’t mind, I do have a question about the rivets.
What are they for?
Meaning why were rivet used instead of bolt? Are they supposed to break under certain load?

On mine, I noted that the 1 is missing (red arrow) and 1 is loose (orange arrow).
Pictures on: http://nikimat.com/genoa_furler_rivet.html

I have never put a rivet… so not familiar with the process.
How critical short term? How easy to put back? Any special size/lenght of rivet?

Thanks in advance.


Aussi différemment, j’ai une question sur la TVA… il semble que depuis que j’ai acheté mon voilier en 2012, la loi a changée.
Je suis Suisse/francais et techniquement resident fiscale de la metropole (alors que j’habite a temps complet sur mon voilier, mais utilise l’adresse d’un ami en France).
A l’époque j;’ai acheté le voilier en Martinique (TVA non payée). Il ne fallait la payer que si l’on entrait dans les eau européennes.
Maintenant on m’a dit que si l’on va en Martinique, Guadeloupe, St martin et St Bart. on risque de sérieuse amendes si la TVA n’est pas payée.
Donc 2 solutions ne pas y aller ce qui serait dommage (mais ne justifie quand meme pas 20% de TVA) ou l’acquitter… A moins qu’il y est une autre solution?
Si vous ne savez pas, peut-être pouvez-vous me recommander a quelqu’un qui puisse me renseigner?

Merci d’avance. cordialement, Alexandre

Good
evening William,
I heard
from Bill that your captain is Richard Piller. So, you are
in good hands.This is
the process to repair your genoa furler
issue:-Remove
the stainless steel part that holds the furler at the bottom
(two nuts)-Lift the
genoa/foil/furler assembly with the halyard-Remove
the 2 or 3 bolts that fasten the grey pulley to the furler,
and try to bring the furler down-If the
furler does not come down, then drill the 8 rivets that
fasten the pulley to the foil, then ease the tack rope of
the genoa, then bring the furler and pulley
down-Ease the
standing rigging (mizzen backstays, main backstay, both main
top shrouds), secure the mast head with a halyard, open the
forestay turnbuckle and let the furler go down, out of the
forestay.-Bring
the furler to a workshop in order they can separate the
pulley from the furler-Then you
get access to the famous disc and its
screws-If the
screws are sheared (from corrosion) drill and tap new holes,
and use new screws (with LOCTITE thread glue) to fasten the
disc to its aluminum shaft-re-install
the furler with new rivets, cover the new rivets with
silicone compound (to prevent corrosion)-tighten
the rigging
For the
whole operation, you don't need to drop the
forestay/foil/genoa
Ask me
questions when you do it. When will your SM be in
Bermuda?
Olivier
