Hi all, I agree with you if you rapidly change the direction you can loss your propeller, so I couldn't measured the current in this case. So to limit as possible the start current and toque at

Hi all checking current draw a motor start will ALWAYS show a high draw without put much power output due to having to start rotation. When the thrusters is loaded (pushing water) what is the load?

You can make all the parts in a local machine shop. You can manufacture them by high tensil metal without a problem and they are going to function much better than the original parts. You should leave

YES, The torque at starting is to height and perhaps the nominal torque, All the pieces that brake (see photos) brook under normal condition. Actually I am studying adding a soft start (for next

Jean-luc. Do I understand correctly that all the parts listed in your email broke while using your bow thruster? Did it happen at one time? Fair Winds Eric Amel Super Maramu #376 Kimberlite ?

I broke without making a wrong action : - All nylon screw of the propeller, - The motor shaft - The internal parts so I recently measured the current in the bowthuster: 950A! at starting. You can see

That is a great suggestion, Thanks Jose Ipanema SM278

I followed previous advice. one answer was a Reanult car paint number and the other,which I used,was to take the plastic cover near the base of the mast to an auto paint supplier and they will make up

Thanks Pat...I will await your response...please check my thoughts below: Thanks Serge and Dimitris...and Dimitris, of course I remember you in Soros. I wanted to ask you if the boot stripe and rub

In preparation for our Atlantic Crossing next spring, I will be taking down the masts for inspection and PM. I have a couple of question: 1) what do you do with the radar and other long cables? 2)

Eric, Sorry about the delay, life has been hectic lately. Photos posted Under Ipanama. They also include a pix of the outhaul shaft extractor and a couple of other things. Enjoy them

If there is no glitch in the compressor, evidenced by a low high pressure, the other reason for the high differential pressure may be a contamination/obstruction of the capilary. In the old days,

Bill, If you remember me from Syros. Probably you need to put some Freon in the system I had a similar problem on my SM2000. Regards Dimitris Alma Libre Too www.almalibre.gr Sent:

Hi,someone knows the Stix of Amel Euros 41?, and if can be considered a Bluewater?. I bought one, and the naval architect who is preparing the documentation for registered in Spain, tells me that his
