Re: Amel 55 - captain's seat
Hi Martin,
Many thanks, a very comprehensive explanation.
If I am not asking too much of your patience, how do you manage helming in the stand up position? Has the seat a back-folding bottom cushion

Re: Forward head black water tank copper fitting replacement
Hello there, another follow up question from a newbie owner…
what did you put inside on the other end of the 1.5” to 1.5” hose barb to hose barb fitting?
Did you use hose, or a section of PVC

Re: MDKAL starting problem
Does anyone have the part number for the MDKAV fuel solenoid? I assume it is the same as the MDKAL but can't locate it in the pdf of my parts manual. I'm thinking a spare belongs in my kit.

Re: Amel 55 - captain's seat
Hi Martin,
Your helm seat solution looks great. I particularly like it because you have chosen original Amel parts.
With the 55 the helm seat is fitted on top of the extended cockpit port bench. So
