In mast furling Amel Maramu # 267
Peter Blokpoel
Hello all,
Currently negotiating the purchase of Amel Maramu, hull 267 year 1989.
I am not a great fan of in mast furling, however I'm willing to try it out. Is there anyone who can tell me if there are any known structural problems with electrical installation and/or furling motors on the Amels built around 1989?
Also, has anyone ever tried to convert the reefing system and masts to slidecar and slabreef system. Is this possible with the Amel masts?
Any info more than welcome.
Thanks
Peter
