Hi all, I recently placed my first parts order with Amel, and I'm having trouble paying them. I've given them two different US-based credit cards from different issuers and they say both were

Kent, I can make them for $14 out of 6061 Aluminum. I would like to make at least 20 at that price if at all possible. We can also have them clear anodized for an additional ~$4 each. I have not

I have no idea what the cost would be, Philipp. When I get them off if Kristy, I’ll try to find out what it would cost to ship them. They would be bulky, but not very heavy. I’ll take some pics

Hi Kent, You can kick my order up to 10 if it helps get to the minimum of 100 total. Craig

Thanks, Miles. I hope you’re having a good Summer. I think I have a good picture of the manual furling rig in my mind. Makes sense to use the same line as the one to drop the main sail. Do you

Agreed, Danny. I have a full cockpit enclosure, but it’s getting very tired after 10 years. I can’t stand up in the cockpit without bending over a bit. I’m removing the old cockpit cover and

Danny, I have always looked at those dual wheels, fully exposed to the sun,wind ,rain and spray and shook my head. They are welcome to it , I have said a dozen times that I am surprised more helms are

Hi Danny, I had to laughabout you never wearing wet weather gear. We have a similar enclosure setup onCream Puff. I’m not sure I even know where the wet weather gear is anymore.While we don’t

Hello Kent, The Tack Rope material is what Amel uses for the outhaul on the boom and for the main sheet car traveler. I think that if you measure them you will find this to be the case. For

Hi All, a little while ago someone posted regarding their SM pulling to starboard when under motor. A number of possibilities were explored by members. I think I have the answer. Today, my dawn

Hi Kent, I'm not sure what you mean by a bimini type top but I offer this anyway. I think the most valuable addition to Ocean Pearl was the full cockpit enclosure, from the windscreen to behind the

Hi Kent, I'm interested but it depends on the dimensions of the package. Because I think, that there are limitations on the cargo transport to La Rochelle Pallice if they have to transport it by post

We did the same. Just raised the antifoul up to the, in our case, red stripe. It is all paint on ours, no vinyl stripping required. Some have laser lined it and lifted the waterline gradually from bow

Hi Adam, We raised our antifouling ( in our case, Coppercoat) to the top of the orange stripe, thus covering it. We then left an inch of white hull above which we added a new boot line. It took a

I have used my water tank, on my 1983 maramu #125, for 10 year. However if I were to build the system again I would use a bronze keel cooler in the water tank. Tom Deasy

Hi I too am looking raising the waterline aft and leveling it out to existing level at the bow, due to new weight distribution of SS solar arch, solar panels as added in 2015 and of course the
