Re: Dripless shaft seal

Re: Dripless shaft seal
Hello all, thanks for all the thoughts and recommendations. I am still doing my research, but for those Maramu and mango owners out there does anyone know what Amel used as OEM equipment for the shaft

Re: “Default” anchor arrangement on an Amel 54
Hi S&T,
Somewhat related to this topic. We have just thrown out the WASI anchor because of the poor fit on the bowroller. It has been replaced by a (second hand) Spade 35kg. Next to the original Delta

Hi J.P.;
Glad to see you have worked out the bugs and have your Amel where you want her. I know you spent a lot of time and energy putting in all the upgrades. Must now be very proud of her. You

Re: AMFA bilge pump rebuild kit
Thanks Bill,
I will try Amel.
In the diagram of the Marina ZZ pump I have, there is no details about the motor/gearbox components. Do you know if the white plastic gear is easy to replace without

Several places had the gear. Sav at Amel had the white plastic gear and Emek Marine in Turkey. Have you tried those?

On the same subject, can you confirm this gearbox clutch is broken beyond repair?
Oliver,
Do you remember the details of the Bosch wipers motor you used?
Thanks

I concur with Bill on the differences being hard to list, and someone will always think you left one out. However, with that said, I will give you our thoughts, as we were making the same

Have you considered the Volvo Shaft Seal 828254 Shaft Size 25mm Stern Tube Diameter 42mm?

Hello,
Some of you have mentioned fortress, what size do you have/recommend as stern anchor for an A54?
Manufacturer table shows fx-55 based on LOA, but presumably not as secondary anchor.

I have installed a few of the PSS dripless units made by PYI on customer boats. They are pretty well designed but I am going to stay with the original Amel installed Bronze packing gland
