Re: Fw: Deck repairs for an SM ( and other Amels )
Hi Ian,
That's super! Captain Tolley's (Amazing) Creeping Crack Cure, if you choose to use it, will be like "belts and suspenders" then. Certainly can't hurt.

Hi Craig,
The cracks we have are tiny and really only visible in sunlight, with no creaking noise when you step around them, so I think we would be unlucky if there had been any penetration down to

Others will comment I'm sure. If he has not worked on an Amel he would not know that the powers don't move. I'm sure Olivier would have commented had the stage not been as rock solid as they should

Re: Where do you send the grey water from a washing machine?
Since all the gray water on Aquarius is piped into the bilge, and then pumped out. For the washing machine, I would say that it's a good thing. Good flow of soapy water to clean out the bilge water

I'll second Jean-Pierre's endorsement of "Captain Tolley's (Amazing) Creeping Crack Cure" !
15 years or so on our hairline leaks of windows and still bone dry!
That being said, I recall discussion

Nothing to add on the drain arrangements, the normal bilge is where it should be going. On the question about the water pressure, it is useful to remember that all of these machines are designed for,
