Re: Wintering in potentially freezing conditions, water maker?
Matt,
They are talking about your knot meter transducer where it goes through the hull bottom. Don't know if you have a paddlewheel style, but that's the bit. Remove the paddlewheel, like you would do

Re: Upper C-Drive oil leak
Hi Eamonn,
The other replies are correct that there are no connections at the neoprene hose that would leak oil. I noted in your description that you said the leak rate was "50ml/hr of run time."

Re: When to use Running Back Stays and Onan Control Board PCB
Scott, the runners on my boat are in two parts. Part one comes down from the mast and ends in a loop 1 m above the deck and is tensioned with a block and tackle to the base of the shrouds with a snap

Re: Amel is going lithium
Last year I paid about EURO2,500 via a NEW CALEDONIA dealer plus installation.
Can confirm NO noise; NO vibration at all – it is mounted on the solar arch.

Re: When to use Running Back Stays and Onan Control Board PCB
Joerg,
Great article, but it seems some of the photos are missing. I am curious how the "backstay extension" works. I simply have a pair of 18m long 10mm kevlar lines that I keep on the stanchions

Re: Fiji Pearl rendezvous
Yes, this has worked for me and if the depth is 10 meters I can see
out about 30 to 40 meters in front of me, if the depth is 70 meters I
can see usually see out about 80 meters. This gives me enough

I wouldn't trust a little block like that. Our dyneema runners when in use go from the mast at the attachment point of the inner forestay and connect to a 2:1 polyseter rig with the a fairly large

Re: Upper C-Drive oil leak
The various suggestions to identify the leak are, of course, germane. This does sound to me, though, like the upper shaft seal is leaking - it drips down in a subtle way and it's hard to figure out

Re: Upper C-Drive oil leak
Hi Bill,
Paper towels are good. However they also absorb water. If there is some water nearby they will confuse the issue. Oilzorb pads do not absorb water.

Re: Upper C-Drive oil leak
When I have an unknown leak, I cover the area with oilzorb pads.
and check the engine and tranny every 15 minutes.
It is easier to find the approximate area where the oil is coming using the oil

Re: Access to water maker panel AMEL54
Alex,
Maybe I can help.
High Pressure hose goes to the Control panel. Sometimes they are secured in the engine room without enough slack to pull the panel out.
