Bill, Mark McG, Mark E, Danny, and Gary. Just trawling through a backlog of over 3,000 unread messages, and found out about this. Great work. And thank you. David SV Perigee, SM#396 Panama, for

Hi all, Just a quick contribution for the benefit of those who are operating a Yanmar 4JH3-HTE and ONAN genset. I developed the attached look-up tables to assist me with keeping track of diesel

Hi Bill, The wear was at the far end of one rack. I have a s3g autopilot. I have attached a LeRoy Somers gearbox replacement kit I received from them some time ago. Also some genoa furling motor

Martin, There is probably not an easy solution to the problem with 54 sound insulation. When Amel started producing the 54, they decided to change material from the charcoal colored un-coated

Eric, I wonder if the wear on the rack is at the same spot where the Raymarine autopilot switches back and forth between port and stbd in light conditions. The older 400G autopilot had an abrupt
