Hello, Looking at beta I saw a Beta 90 3,6L 4 cylinder aspirated mechanical diesel for commercial use. Would this be suitable or the EPA compliancy issues to complicated? Regards Denis ex Meltem #32

Well done Tony - very satisfactory. The AMEL 54 is the finest yacht around at the moment and it is no surprise that they sell. Good luck and thanks for the introduction to Antoinne Hutter - I will

Mark, In my opinion, the biggest issues with a 30 year old Perkins rebuild are: 1.) Too many times only a partial rebuild is done. This can be the fault of the owner or the mechanic. 2.) Finding the

Isn't that the idea to break the hook and not destroy the profile? Paul on sykerpa SM 259

Hello everyone - I would like to ask if anyone can recommend a US source for a replacement plastic ballooner halyard hook (for hoisting). This would be for a Super Maramu 2000. Alternatively, I'll

I had a similar problem, wherein the chain counter would count on its own, regardless of the anchor position. I had Alban in Martinique look at it and he cleaned the magnet. It worked for awhile and
