Re: Cook top dimensions

Bryce Procter
 

Many thanks Elja, 590 should work perfectly.
I am currently locked down away from my boat.
Yes, I am also converting my oven to electric.
My idea is to insert 2 small ovens into the current oven space inside the existing stainless steel gimballed frame. If you like I can send you a photo in the next day or two of how the two ovens look together along with dimensions. Each oven draws a maximum of 2400W.

Regards

Cook top dimensions

Bryce Procter
 

Hi all, 

Can anyone give me the dimensions of the gas cooktop on the SM 2000 as per the pic. Looking to retrofit an induction cooktop which is 574mm square and hoping it will sit on the existing s/s ledge. 
Thanks in advance.

This was the best one yet.  Really appreciated the knowledge and sharing from the presenters, Brian on Delos and the other owners.  Very much worth watching on YT if you didn’t catch it.  Thanks to Bill/Tilo for organizing this.  You guys are getting very good at it.

Whaouu ! What a massive, supportive and detailed answers I got from this question !
Thank you to all of you. 
I'll wait for the next long stop before removing it again and change oil for grease… That way I will be able to see how long the oil will leak and prepare myself for the exercise ;-)

Thank you again and take care…

Re: Furling Main Motor

Tim Bowser
 

So I tried taking the gearbox off with not much success.  I figured I would post a quick video here to what I am attempting to do and maybe someone could give me some guidance if I am approaching it the right way.  Or if anyone knows of some instructions online of how to remove the gearbox that would be helpful.

So I have some new shiny ones that I’m rather pleased with.

Just to be clear I’m not selling these and can’t vouch for them at all but they look nice and I would probably be buying them if I hadn’t already replaced mine !
Think these are only for the mk1 rigged Maramus? Pre double spreaders and electric mainsail furling etc

If interested and shipping to some exotic location is an issue I might be able to help out somehow

I bought a new switch and a short piece of 1/4" ID copper tubing. I crimped the tubing onto the switch, flattened the rest of the tubing, and drilled a hole through it near the end. It has held up for 3+ years.
