Thanks Eric.I have been able to do that on some brands. The last lot were Vetus which were expensive and really good performance. They were destroyed in under a year by the 30amp charger going rogue

Thanks a lot Eric Amel Super Maramu #376 Kimberlite

Trevor, I havefound that sealed maintenance free batteries can actually be opened. Many timesthe openings are under labels. I am able to add water to these batteries andalso Use thehigher voltage

Hi Anne, I have seen Lifeline AGM installed apparently successfully in a Super Maramu but you need to understand how your total charging system works and adjust it all accordingly. I

Just myopinion---I believe Amel installed lead acid batteries ( group 31 on my boat)because they are standard truck batteries. They are available worldwide. If youhappen to have a problem with an agm

Has anyone installed AGM batteries in the SM? Are they compatible with existing charger? (maintenance free lead acid batteries were used so far) Can anyone recommend a brand? Size matters as we all

Ian, Since force10 bought eno- the parts are difficult if not impossible to get. If you findsomeone with parts please let me know. Fair Winds Eric AmelSuper Maramu #376 Kimberlite From:

Can anyone please tell me the model name of the ENO 4 burner cooker fitted to the SM2000 around 2003? I am trying to order a replacement knob. The name maybe on the plaque at the back of the cooker

One question about the short turnbuckle: why it is necesessary, why I cannot use a standar one? I think there is enough clearance between the deck and the roller. Thank you very much and best

Garry and Danny, Thanks a lot. Will get back to my boat and see how I can fix it according to your directions, Charles

Thanks Roque and all for suggesting insurance companies that may insure us outside the beaten track (the usual perimeter). Our Maramu is in France (registered in Saint Malo but moored in Martigues)

We have "Round the World" with DeLasse. They will insure US flagged vessels only if it has a home port that is not one of the 50 US states. Ours is St Thomas USVI. Our boat is insured virtually

Thanks Trevor and Roque, I will make enquiries with both and let you know what I find. Regards, Terry & Dena

T&D There is difference between the different Pantaenius offices. Try to get in contact with Pantaenius in Sweden, they usually is cheaper. Tell them that I recommended you to contact them. Pantaenius

I second what Joel said. We are BVI flagged and in US waters. Geoffroy de Lassée made it very differcult until we went elsewhere. We settled and are happy with Pantaenius. Mark SM2K #275

Last time I heard, Mr. de Lassee wouldn't/couldn't insure US flagged vessels, especially if they were in US waters. Has this changed as the folks that use him love him? Joel F. Potter 954 812
