Paul, The fan is two speed. The lower speed is quieter, but less efficient. I suppose Amel did this for some owners that objected to the noise. There is no red light indicator on SM 387, but possibly

Paul, I was lead to believe that it was just meant to lower the noise level in the saloon when someone is sleeping there. I always leave it on high. I also noticed that this reefer was not

Hi Amel Gurus, Once again we come to you asking for words of wisdom. We'd like to know what temperature we should expect to see at the top of the C-drive while running. We're on a test run after

Hi, been trying to replace my topping lift, seen the explanations about the bungee cord etc... however, my question is wether replacing the rope will be straight forward in terms of pulling the new

Hi Gary, I have just completed a full re build on the bow thruster on my Mango. I will post all images as soon as it is installed in the yacht. To answer your question regarding the seal running on
