I berthed at Monastir Marina this year for two months and found it to be very good, safe and happy service, yes unbeatable prices. The fuel is good and the labour is good but I would recommend close

The box has a 220 volt connector, the one on the left with the male pin for protective conductor and the 2 female for current and mass, and a 12 volt connector on the right for the italien

I have been for 6 years in Monastir, Tunisia. There are 2 shipyards: One in the marina with a travellift of 20 tons and another in the fishers port (Port de Peches) with a larger travellift. If you

I would highly recommend Basimakopoulos shipyard in Kilada on Peloponnes. Competent, nice people doing work at a reasonable price. And the location is very safe from freak winds and thieves.

To reinforce what Bill is saying: don’t go to the shipyard in Marina di Ragusa. It’s the worst experience I’ve had in decades. And I would go further. If you want any work done on your boat,

Thanks, Bill, I meant the question, generically, but appreciate the detailed answers. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Hi Eamonn, Glad you found the leak. Yes, the 60-90-10 is a generic rotary shaft seal (aka lip seal), any brand is fine like SKF, Parker Hannefin, etc. and no, no special features are needed (ie.,

Hi Theo We’ve acted on Bill’s recommendation to lift out in Malta this winter. We’ve been in Preveza, Greece for 2 winters (latterly with the Amel). We were in Cleopatra Marina which is highly

Hi Theo, I can recommend Capo de Orlando or marina Di Ragusa north and south Sicily Regards Paul - Fortuna II 55#17

Theo, I really like Manoel Island Yacht Yard in Malta, which is about 50 miles south of Sicily. It is one of 2 yards that I recommend...the other is Carenantilles in Martinique in the caribbean.

Hi everyone, We're really enjoying our Amel 50 in the Balearic islands. It's such a luxury to have a floating home by beautiful beaches and crystal clear seas. Our initial goal was to reach Turkey on

Many thanks for all the hints and suggestions. The oil leak is slower than I had said; about a fifth of the oil between the Max and Min mark leaked and it drips a drop every 3 or 4 hours when the

Many thanks for all of the suggestions and hints. The oil leaks slower than I said and a drip every 4 hours or so also comes out when the engine is off. The total leak in 10 days is about a fifth of
