Hi Alan, simple fellow that I am, I see valuable input from my super wind 350. Anything over 15knots apparent my super wind keeps my autohelm, radar, chart plotter and instruments functioning. Don't

all good Danny

I think that most wind generator enthusiasts are enthused without much information on how they perform in the real world. The curves of the Superwind 350 and the D400 show pretty much the same output

Hi Danny, I was pulling your leg… :-) Jean-Pierre Germain jp.germain45@...

Well JP that's your opinion and you are entitled to it. Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl

I know the answer…. PEANUTS!! :-) Jean-Pierre Germain,Eleuthera SM007 Opua

Hi Alan, no I cant, I don't have that capability. My system has an ammeter that shows amps net of input and out put. Regards Danny

Hi Danny, So can you tell us how many actual amps you see at those different wind speeds? Cheers Alan Elyse SM437

Pat, Check & Check! CW Bill Rouse Amel

Bill, You will understand my concern about isolation after my alternator fiasco .New one installed ,no neg. leak,check one off the long list. Thanks, Pat SM Shenanigans

Eloi, This was made originally by Alban LEROY with Amel in Martinique. It has been made by more than one of my clients using a local machine shop. If you noticed this card in the file I previously

Bill, So the box does not need to be isolated ,good to know. I will then order the bushings. Thanks, Pat

Kent , They don't state if the bolts go all the way thru , my concern is or my question is , does the box need to be electrically isolated from the engine? It has been very hot and humid for weeks

Yes. The following file is from my Amel Book Supplemental Files, and is what will make that job simple: Main Outhaul & Furling Service Custom Gearbox S... This is another puller that will also work.

Hello, My main outhaul gearbox looks rather "used". I tried to remove the shaft to replace it. But it seems impossible with my straight jaw puller. I put on the max force I can but it doesn't move.

John Hayes Good point regarding their controller being the problem…will check it out once again. Silent Wind was all the rage a few years ago when I bought mine. I certainly wasn’t being

Pat, Those studs are for vibration isolation. They do isolate electrically, but that is incidental. Like you we replaced ours when the old ones gave up. The studs do not connect through. Bill

Hi Ron I brought a y tool of the line silent wind unit 3 years ago. Though new on a trip through the pacific I eventually realised it’s output was negligible I returned its brain box it to the
