You can contact BAMAR directly they can actually refurbish the box for you or you can buy a replacement

As a matter of interest, what was wrong with your motor and where are you having it repaired ? As you say, it may be that an alternative to the original motor is readily available. It will be good

Hi amelians The BAMAR 1.02 of my staysail stopped working. I tested the motor and it worked. Unfortunately, the BOXTRON electric box needs repair or replacement. The green led inside is not on. Does

Hi Eric, I just tried to be helpful but without some more information it is rather difficult. Of course bonding and negative a two separate circuits serving different purpose. Having them separate is

I contacted CIMA and they only take orders for 100 units or more. Bill R’s idea of finding a compatible 24v windlass motor is intriguing. It may be just that simple. My motor is out for repairs at

Thanks , Stu , Good to think that there might be an alternative to Iskra Ian Get Outlook for iOS

Tom, I used fiberglass pipe, not PV. It is much stronger. The thickness of the wall is 1/8". In all the years we've owned our boat, I never had to clear this pipe

 Hi Ian: Our motor on SM 373 was made by CIMA from Italy. See photo. Code: 30552, Number 01779. All of the notations written on the motor are below: CODE: 30552 No: 01779 V: 24 A: 60 IP: 56 RPM:

Does anyone have the part number for this motor, now no longer made by Iskra ? I am corresponding with a supplier who claims to have an alternative motor but I need to make sure that he is quoting

Mike, This is a good idea to get tension with an 8mm halyard. Alternatively, one could use a device that grips the 8mm loop halyard and makes it easier to haul. The ballooner halyard idea is pretty

One idea could be to slack the genoa halyard a bit as you manually haul up the ballooner. Maybe best to raise the ballooner on the same side/overlaid on the genoa. Once the ballooner reaches it's stop

Mark- did you replace both fittings (the riser and the exit) or just the exit fitting ? Im worried about the damage that would be done to pvc clearing a clog with spinning rigging wire. Lifting the

Tom, If you search the archives on this, you will find a few options. This is a task just about every Amel owner will need to do unless they buy a boat already where it

Hi Paul, take a look at this article that Bill Kinney posted awhile ago. That should clarify things wrt isolated ground and when negative and ground are

SM 422’s black water tanks function normally, for now. During our recent haul out I changed the ball valve in the aft head. During this process I noticed that the tank bottom’s copper fitting was

Hi Henrick, The bonding and the battery negative are two separate circuits and should not be connected. You can have positive or negative voltage on the bonding without having a short circuit. This

I am very confused as I am sure many others are by this. Two completely isolated DC systems can have a voltage difference between them. I would have thought that the way to determine whether it is

Hi Eric, Can explain in more detail how did you come across this issue and how are you testing? Did you tested the continuity between the positive and negative/bonding or your voltmeter showing

Bill, This is the 24 volt POSITIVE not the negative which is what is normally the problem with the bonding. Somewhere the 24 + is connected to the bonding. It is powerful enough to run an oil change
