Hello Martin,

Thanks for your fast reaction. The SM does not have a clutch like the 54. It's either the top- gears or the gears on he foot that failed. I will see what's wrong after the haul out next week.

Best regards,

Willem

Hello fellow Amel owners,


I just moored my boat in the El Portet Marina in DENIA, Spain and almost done, the bow thruster did not function anymore and made a screaming noise. The prop is still there but it can turn almost without any resistance.


Any idea what can be wrong and how to repair is very much welcome.


Best regards,
