Re: ZF25M shifting problem
I don’t have an Amel yet but I had similar issues with my old Yanmar and it turned out to be the cable. You might want to disconnect it and try the shifter manually to rule it out.

Hi Daniel, thanks for your reply. I have now 2 replies...one say right, the other say left. Leaving me with no other choice as to wait until I get my boat out of the water and physically check what I got.... I have checked as well with Maud, however so far no reply from her. Many thanks for your effort, Greetings from Langkawi, Volker SY Aquamarine, Santorin 027 Borneo, Malaysia

Re: Mizzen furler
Hello all.
My name is Victor Molero and this is my first apprearance in this group that I have been following for a while. I am overwhelmed by the accumulated knowledge and experience that is shared here, so my thanks to everyone for the valuable contributions. I lost the piece that holds the shaft of the mizzen furler; so I have 3D printed one to replace it; this required me to do a design with a 3D program that I didn't know how to use; fortunately a friend of mine did it for me. So I am sharing here the file with the design in two different formats for anyone to use it in case you also need to 3D print it. Best. Victor SM#314

Re: rub rail insert
This is a perfect example of why we need to continue to support SAV at Amel. This particular part is for a rub rail that has been out of production by Amel for over 20 years. I believe it was replaced near the beginning of the production of the SM 2000. Just Amazing! BTW, I remember trying to order a simple part from Beneteau when my Oceanis 46 was about 6 months old. Not only did Beneteau not have the com[ponent, they could not tell me where they sourced it.

Re: Holding power of Mooring Ball required for hurricanes
Hi Dan,
We found most of the people in Curacao had no plans to head west after the season during our 6 month stay living aboard in the ABCs. They took full advantage of the Nov-Dec SE winds to sail the 500 miles (3-4 days) to the Virgin Islands on a beam reach positioning themselves for another loop through the eastern Caribbean.
In addition, I think I should mention the safety precautions a boat needs to take in order to passage to Trinidad.
With best regards,
Mark

Good morning,. If you go to Peake in Trinidad, there is a good chance you will see us there this year. We hauled there in 2017 and are planning to head back. We also hauled in Curacao in 2018 and that was good for is as well. That decision should be based on your cruising plans for the next year. Curacao is a good stop if you are heading west, but not if you want another pass up and down the eastern Caribbean.

Re: 220 volt exhaust blower replacement
Mike - I've rewired mine so the standard fans operate when either main engine or genset is operating plus I have a manual "on" position so I can run the fans with no engine (when working in the engine room or to cool it after motoring). Use a couple of diodes in the circuit to isolate the engines.
Cheers, Craig

Re: 220 volt exhaust blower replacement
Mike Longcor (SV Trilogy)
Thanks John. I do have the normal engine room blowers that run when the ignition key is turned, but maybe you're on to something with the inexpensive 12V fans. The Onan genset has a 12V alternator so could a simple 12V fan do the job here? Then it's just a matter of having it power on automatically, or remembering if it's manual. I still think the best choice is tapping into the excess 220V power. But perhaps the 12V starter circuit is an easier and less expensive option. Any reason to not do this? Obviously maintaining the shared 12V starter battery is essential and not something you want to mess up. Regards, Mike Longcor SV Trilogy SM23 Opua, NZ

Re: Holding power of Mooring Ball required for hurricanes
Trinidad has Peake’s (we hauled out their), Power Boats, also very good, and Coral Cove. A bit less expensive, but they are all negotiable.

It’s out of the hurricane zone. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Hi
thanks to all for the great advice. Your personal experiences are a great help. I had not considered that the cleat on the foredeck might get ripped out. So I will not leave the boat in Grenada and consider Trinidad (Peake) or Curacao (Curacao Marine), on the hard with tie downs. I am aware that they are not fully out of the hurricane zone, but the risk is much lower there. Thanks Eamonn Washington Travel Bug Super Maramu #151 Currently in Grenada.
