Hi Dean, I would not want to count on the glycerine passing through the membranes. On further reading, it is nearly identical in size and structure to propylene glycol. However, if you do keep the

Thanks Matt 👍 Ok so it looks like a heat gun is the best bet for removal. The boats on a mooring so perhaps best to wait a while till I’ve got shore power for the job. I’ll probably take a

Ok great, thanks Tom. We'll be wintering ashore, so we don't even benefit from the "warmth" of that Scottish water! I think I will try to find some kind of "safe" low-level heat producer for the

Thought I would share a recent battery nightmare that we had. We had a 30 hour passage from Canet-en-Roussillon to Mallorca earlier this week, this involved quite a few hours of motoring. We arrived

Hi Scott Really interesting thread, thank you. We are following with interest. After we met you at the Caribbean Amel Rally 2019 we took a late decision to do the Pacific this year, and end our

I recently met a 2001 SM owner who had a near lightning strike that killed most of the electronics on board. His broker is Hanham Insurance Agency. Not sure of the brokers name but the mobile number

Sorry to jump in on this thread.... We are taking possession of our Amel 50 in Sept. We are searching for insurance now. USA flagged, but cruising the Iberian Peninsula and the Med. Thanks in

Mike, I am assuming you are USA flagged? I spent a lot of time on insurance after Pantaenius USA changedtheir Caribbean policy requirements to a point where it was just aboutimpossible to

Having been dropped by Travelers we are receiving quotes for coverage for East Coast US and Caribbean (not hurricane season). Age is apparently a factor in rates and Aletes is a 1998 hull. Received

Good I f, thanks! ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

We are fans of Delos. Have been watching them for a couple of years now. The Amel was not really a relevant part of why we watched, though it is more interesting since we became

Wolfgang, Good to be hanging out with another Amel last night in Cape May. Quite a.little squall last evening! The smaller boat next to us drug back and the young couple were fighting the whole time;

Hi Scott I do like your thinking and see you have muchbmore understanding than I. I generally run my 720ah lithium MV down to around 30% before I top them up with the generator and usually only to

Hi Alan: A couple of thoughts: 1. I highly recommend modifying the track so that you can remove the car easily by simply removing one bolt at the aft end of the track. See my picture below on

I, for.one, have learned a few things from their videos. Yes, I've spotted a few things along the way that made me say "oh, I could've helped you with (or prevent) that!" but by in large thwy handle
