Kent, Tom on L'Orient (who we met recently here in Oahu) called me the Lithium Evangelist or something similar. I do love my lithium and the impact that it has had on our comfort aboard, but I will

When my anchor wash pump stopped I attemped to rotate the shaft (could not see it because it faced away from me) with a screw driver (like you can do with the AC or Dessalator feed pumps). By mirror

My A54 has the Mastervolt 110 and a single Volvo serpentine belt. We have over 500 hours on the current belt and it looks new. By saying that I'm sure it will break tomorrow! If there's any way you

CURACAO on the hard!!!! Getting old???? Teun Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

I have gone all Mastervolt with my Lithium conversion, which was just completed by the local MV dealer. I have 3x200 Ah 24V batteries and I’m using the existing MV 60 A and 100 A chargers and

For those interested, here is a picture of the strainer in real life. Now where is my boat .... Cheers, Arno Luijten SV Luna, A54-121 Saint Martin

My 2 cents. My old boat has dual Lithionics 12v x 560AH batteries with external BMS. I like the lithionics brand, latest batteries are UL listed and IP rated. 1120AH or 14kwh was enough to run a 9k

This situation is a perfect example of, if it is NOT the original pump, nobody knows what pump a 25 year old SM may have installed today, Second and subsequent owners usually have no idea if the

Hi, The seawater pump for anchor washing was just replaced this winter at Amel pontoon by the best at electrical and Amel stuff around : Fred Quintard It was a part of our "Grande visite" works and

Good morning, my pump does not look like the one on your photo. Looks like the sea water pump for the engine plus electrical motor. Pump is attached to the end of 24V motor. I will try to check it

Michael & Robyn, I am positive that you are incorrect. The 66b is a freshwater pump...photo below. The original anchor wash pump for Amel SMs was the: F.E.I.T Pompe Model JDREX S40 24 volt The same

Hi Slavko, we have the same issue that the dc motor seems to have a short and pops the circuit breaker. I checked the brushes and they are clean and in good shape. Our pump looks just like yours. Our

My original pump was under the port side V-berth. Sea water came from the through hull for the forward head. I believe subsequent boats used fresh water heads, and the anchor wash fed off the sea

Hi Tom, where did you install a new pump? regards, Slavko

Thank you for reply. Is OEM pump available in Europe? Do you have a model number and manufacturer? Slavko

I did the same on mine. I tried to have the original pump rebuilt, but the cost was a tad more than just replacing it and like Tom, I added a longer hose and couldn’t be happier! Mark Garver SV

Hi Mark, for the headsail since it goes neither way check at the breaker first. On 299 this is in the port forward locker in the forard cabin, the same breaker does the anchor winch and the headsail

The breaker goes off when I try to start the washing from the cockpit. Pump is installed in engine room and breaker is near the breaker for watermaker. So I would say that the problem is in the pump.

Our anchor wash pump also failed about a year ago, mostly due to rust. It started to drip sea water, which ended up in the bilge by the forward head. We replaced it with an ITT Jabsco Hotshot 6
