Mark, I am going to print that out and show the marina manager, strange it says on the bottle non-toxic , not harmful to metal ,fiberglass etc. Its on the boat I will look to see if the ingredients

Hey folks I thought these might be of interest for those with older Maramus with the morse red cables and the Morse 401 commander steering system. I know it would have helped me to have had these so

Just to express all the pleasure of benefitting from the outstanding (responsive, efficient, ) response of the Amel After Sales services. Owner of a 1982 Maramu, I lost my bow thruster (tube, gear,

Hello Alin Congratulations on purchasing Wanderer. She is a wonderful boat and provided my family and I many years of adventure and security. Some of the great memories of my life have been aboard

Mark, Its not bad ,all the holes are clear, but thought it might clean out stuff from between the tubes. So 4 hrs. and then flush with water to rid the acid. Do you know if it can be used on the fresh
