Kent, Do you have the part numbers for the bow thruster lip seal and the prop shaft lip seals as used by Carolina Seal? Are these both 60mm, but different types of seals? I have not yet changed

Good morning Alain, That is pretty nice you don't need any running backstay! I noted you mentioned heel average 20° with the genoa, unless I am mistaking I believe the longer waterline is at 15°,

Hello all, last winter in Marmaris, we equipped Pilgrim with an inner forestay, furler and staysail (27 sqm). I created a folder with pictures taken during initial tests at sea. SM2K Pilgrim's inner

Bill and Kent, Yes, the damage will be covered by the transport insurance but with a 7000 deductible :-( Normally I have a lower deductible, but with Sevenstar Transport it was a package deal with

Curt, If I were you, and since this is apparently your first time, I would order the things you need from Amel (sav"at"amel.fr). The following is the list I gave Amel for Super Maramu 387 parts will

Terry, Crossing the Pacific, we used the double headsails for any wind direction of 155 Port to 155 Starboard. We do have an Asymmetrical which we attach to the bow roller...we do not use the

It has a pin that goes through the middle like a shear pin. The nylon bolts hold it all together. The nylon bolts are the shearing parts, not the metal pin. It us simple and it works (recent

That's what I thought, too. The CDrive is definitely an proprietary Amel part. Did you find someone to work on your electrical/electronic problems? Kent
