Miles, I delivered the entire car assembly to the machine shop, explained how it was supposed to work and they machined a new pin and disk which worked perfectly. (actually I could have several made

Bob, I'm pretty sure Danny is referring to the 60mm x 80mm x 12mm lip seal for the Bowthruster tube, not the one for the Bowthruster propeller. This one: -- Mark McGovern SM #440 Cara Deale, MD

Hi Tom, I can share my experience using the Mastervolt MLI Ultra 24/5000 x4 = 720ah and the range of MV chargers, including MV solar charger and MV management system on board Fortuna for the past 5

Hi Danny, I've wondered about this. How do you spot water in the bow thruster? Bob, KAIMI SM 429 Flashback: Years ago (12?) our Santorin we were anchored near Ocean Pearl outside the Annapolis boat

I've read with great interest the insightful posts of the group on this topic. Like most Amelians, I envision L'ORIENT (SM2K 422) with a lithium battery system in the future. But when ? This space

Dear forum, Our Amel 54 is the first sailboat we own that lacks a boom vang. Why is this? I notice the A55 and the A64 both do have a vang and I think I've seen some SMs with a vang as well. How do

Hi Jose, This is probably the third time in 11 years I have done an in water, between haul-out lip seal replacement. Just routine. As soon as I see a trace of water I act. Hasn't happened too often

Hi Tom, You mention "Getting them (the swivels) out of the mast is the work". I'm at this point. Would you kindly describe the steps you took to remove the pinion as that appears to be the final

Yes, but in my experience the 20 meter standard cable length is not quite long enough to get to the B&G junction box, and there is very little difference in the 213 Masthead Mount with 20m of cable

Hi Oliver, the AMEL 54 main mast length is 18.50 m. Olivier
