I used PropSpeed with mixed results. But, while in Turkey I met an American catamaran cruising couple, who loved it. He and his wife had used PropSpeed 6 or 7 times with success. He said that

Thanks for the info. I am waiting on an estimate from a UK outfit cat pumps.co.uk for them to supply the kit and to do the job. I have watched a couple of YouTube videos. It looks reasonably

FYI- I just ordered 4 gear box tops from Kent's vendor in Annapolis for $100 each (no design work necessary so saved $50; thanks Kent). If you're buying this from Ronan, he now calls it "the Kent

99% works for me - thanks, Mark.

I rebuilt the 20 year old high pressure pump on my 24V D60 a few years ago with parts I got through Dessalator guy in Maine (Mark Fruehoff-Balcen Marine Technical Setvices-(207) 522-6737-info@...).

Does anyone know the thread size of the drain plug? I'd like to use a short nipple with a hose on it to drain the oil into a proper container rather than a makeshift funnel or whatever that always

Hi Ian. I first had new cabinet pulls made. That worked out well, so when I had two good gear boxes with three broken covers (the plates on the top and bottom of the gear box), I had those printed,

Hello, Is there also a lipseal and maybe ballbearing list for the AMEL 54? Regards Oliver Vela Nautica A54#39 Gibraltar

Mike thank you Paul

Thanks Will. I reckon that the leak is from one of the oil seals on the crankcase. The pump works fine and has only 608 hours on it. However if I go to the trouble of taking it out then it should

I second the Pettit spray below. This is bar far the bestsolution I have found for the prop. Unfortunately,I also fell victim to the claims of Propspeed and completely wasted a couple ofhundred

Thanks Mark and Bill. I will add a second Dowty seal and some oil-resistant silicone sealant. Mark Pitt Sabbatical III, SM419, Rhode Island, USA

This is really interesting news re the car wash. Pretty cool. Thank you! Porter McRoberts A54-152. S/V IBIS Opua. Excuse the errors. Sent from my IPhone Www.fouribis.com

Mark, The first picture is correct. The second is not. Olivier Beaute chimed in on this topic towards the end this thread: https://amelyachtowners.groups.io/g/main/topic/33139860#47902 -- Mark

Mark, I have seen that 2nd O ring photo before. I do not remember where I saw it, but I think it is wrong. I took a photo of the V Plug/Bolt from Amel right after I unwrapped it. Here it is: There

Hi Nick, I had the same issue after leaving Martinique for the state last year. The CAT pumps are built in the USA and are rebuildable, however I was not able to find a dealer in the USA to rebuild

Hi all, I have some confusion about sealing the C-drive drain plug used with the Spurs linecutter. I re-installed the plug with an O-ring and a Dowty washer (the metal washer with a rubber insert)

I have used bronze and so was the old broken ones. -- Gerhard Mueller Amel Sharki #60 Currently Kalamata, Greece

Paul, I had put this list together to help reference all the seals on Aletes. I cannot guarantee its exhaustiveness nor 100% accuracy, but it may be a start for you. If anyone has corrections or
