Dear Joerg, Yes on Carango [Amel 54] I flew the ensign at the stern (but not on open Ocean) only anchored or on coastal sailing. And the Burgee on a huge in my case 1.5 meter pole which took the

Ian, Parts4Engines lists this at $270 in Aluminum (no VAT if shipped to US). Suspect custom SS will be $$. You might also try Trans Atlantic Diesel for a Perkins M80T. Craig, SN68

Hello gents (and ladies) I am wondering if anyone on the A-54 has been able to get access to the guts of the upright fridge/freezer in the galley. I think we’ve had a gas leak and need to re-braze

Dear all! I will change my bowthruster seals and also want to change the oil in the thruster. I found info regarding the oil quantity on the SM, but nothing about how much oil goes into the thruster
