So sorry to read about your 5th eye surgery... I really hope it ends up ok... No hurry, take your time, the picture is actually of the one on your boat !!! Hope you have a great weekend!

I think that you know the answer to your question...but, if not, review these facts: That is not really a bilge pump, but rather a gray water sump pump. Unless something is very wrong with your boat,

Hi , have no experience in this issue. My humble ignorant opinion. Based on the mango not sure where the sm has the main sea chest. Loosen the the lid so water can leak out. But not completely open

Hi All, Tracie & I are returning to the States for 1 - 2 months and have had the boat hauled at the Caicos shipyard in Providenciales. She is secured in their 'Hurricane Section' which has large

Paul, We had a new ATN "Gale Sail" on board, but the conditions prohibited bending this sail on to the Genoa Furler. I sold the Gale Sail afterwards...it had never been used. We mostly used about 2.3

I bought one last year Alex. Not on the boat, so can't tell you where or part number. I'll see if I can find it and let you know. Having 5th eye surgery today, so might be a few

Paul, When in the Indian Ocean Bay of Bengal we encountered a Cyclone with 50ish knots and about 7 meter waves. It's a long story, but we ran with this cyclone in an anti-clockwise direction for 5

I don't have any technical knowledge, just my personal experience. My previous boat had a Raymarine linear drive on the quadrant. It performed well, but after 10 years needed refurbishment of the

As of two years ago, SeaHawk's Island44, their tin based paint, was still legal in the US for boats over 75 ft LOA. Like Ric said, many if not most commercial ships use this or similar tin based

Hi Alan, sounds good. Going backward and forward and turning an bit and remember the number of turns - if there is a tie and you try pulling both cables from their motor side you might see

Thanks Walter, OK, I'll try that and see if I can get the cable out. I've managed to pry the brush holder out of the plastic holder on deck, and I used silver solder flux and silver solder to solder

Well, it sounds like the same white gear that broke on our AMFA (note, not-Reya) bilge pump. Amel sent us a replacement gear for €129.35, ex-VAT, plus shipping, a couple of years
