Gary,
I for one would love to see the schematics and parts list that you used to modify your system!

Re: Mastervolt alternator overcharging
As I said above, that’s exactly the problem I found and fixed: loose connection in the voltage sensing cable for the alternator. But the latest is that the alarm came back on last night after 8

Re: Mastervolt alternator overcharging
Had a related problem once. It was blamed on the Mastervolt regulator. Replaced it. Problem continued. It was later determined that wire connections had become loose after 1200 miles passage.

SM - Aft Deck Cushion
For those SM owners interested in an aft deck cushion, we purchased this three years ago. It is left outside all the time and is still in good condition. Lies flat, folds up. It fits almost perfectly.

Stefan.
We were in the same position about eight months ago – all these beautiful cushions seemed to do was take up space!
However my wife, being the ingenious one, suggested we cover the cushions

Re: Sterilize the watermaker
Hi Gary, thanks for setting the record straight that it was you, not Danny who first installed the membrane flush timer. My mistake.
Congrats on your retirement!

Re: Sterilize the watermaker
Others have posted a belief that treating the membranes can damage the metal parts. Is it Sodium Metabisulfite that is the culprit? Because of these postings, I have had someone check on Kristy once

Duane,
SOG is the manufacturer (SO Giant Oil Seal Co, Taiwan - a major supplier) and I'd guess whoever got that spare erred in getting one without a totally embedded metal insert.

Re: AMEL 54 watertank compartments - access to clean
No news so far.
But Olivier told me, there are 4 (not 3) compartments, means 4 accesses.
Good to know and not motivating :-).
