Hello all, I posted a while ago that our boat was for sale but we have finally moved off of our beautiful Super Maramu 2000 and she is now ready for viewing in Whangerei, New Zealand. We have a

Due to an unexpected escalation of a medical problem I will no longer be able to continue the cruising life. So it is with great regret that we must sell our 1999 SM 2000, "Maracuya", after putting

If you end-for-end your chain, be sure to let it all out for inspection every couple of months. A year after I did it, I had a solid ball of rusted chain in my locker that took a pneumatic chisel and

Morning John, Spoke to some people here in the marina and apparently the MARAMU for sale is NOT the boat from the South American lady (Magdalena ??). Seems to be a different MARAMU. Best

Hello Ahmet, I checked SM 246 and it had an AUTOPROP with open bearings, so, you probably have the same kind. Unlike the later models, which have sealed bearings with steel balls, your prop has

Hello Pat, according to your hull number, you should have a foot pump in the galley as a back-up. In order to use it, you need to move a three way valve under the galley sink. It happens sometimes

Can you provide main engine hours. Does Tortola have: generator, air conditioning, type of refrigeration, furling system (electric or manual) etc.

The new forum with its ability to easily embed pictures into your posts as Mark has done to answer Ahmet's excellent question is a vast improvement. It makes it so much easier for everyone to

Juan, Tortola looks great and appears well looked after. I’m sure you’ll have little problem selling her. I am also a Mango owner and I’m intrigued with the fold out table attached to the back

That grease nipple was 1/8" BPT on a 2002 AutoProp. AutoProp H6 propellers changed around 1998 (don't have exact date, maybe you should check with Brutons with your serial number). The bearings

Pat, You didn't say which pump you have. If you have the Amel original pump, I can send more information. Yes, all marine freshwater systems have a one-way valve, which allows the system to hold

Hi Pat, I had the same problem on my SM once, I just couldn’t find a leak. Turned out that the 3 way valve at the filter for the water maker didn’t close 100%. I simply installed a cock before

Pat, Sorry, can’thelp with the leak but thought you’d find this a good read since you are anchoredthere:

Ahmet, There is a small Phillips head screw on the side of therotating blade. This is removed and where the grease nipple is attached. Item#7 in the diagram below. If your prop is painted, this

For over a month my water pump comes on for a second,every 15 minutes or so. I have not been able to find any leaks. I just thought of one possibility, a leak in a valve for flushing the membranes

Hi everybady, I would like to grease my bruntons propeller according to bruntons maintance instruction but I couldn’t find any similar greas nipple hole on my propeller. My one seems an older model,

Hi Teun Recall she was looking for $225k. My yacht longer and 5 years younger cost NZ 150 tax paid in NZ. Of course spent a lot more now and I’m on my way across the harbour as I send this to

John, Not sure it is the same boat; can very well be. I have met & know the lady you mention but have not seen her since I left NEW CAL 3 ½ months ago. The boat listed on the bulletin
