Hi Steve,
Yes, Nikimat was a later hull number with a different layout under the sink in the galley. I have a 1990, with the frig near the stove. The compressor is mounted on the upper left rear

Frigoboat Installation
Does anyone have pictures of how the original Frigoboat fridge was installed in a circa 1994 Super Maramu? The original fridge was removed from my boat before I bought it and a home fridge (220v) was

Craig,
I have changed mine several times - use both membranes. Be very careful not to drop parts down sump - I block sump opening with a sheet in case!
Good luck

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: rig tuning
Hi Steve,
Yep, that's the booklet. Check out the "Folding Rule Method" of tensioning.
Sounds reasonable that the existing rig is loose due to stretch. That makes it pretty easy to tension back up -

Yep, as I said in my post I did try the Speedi Sleeves. Wasn't happy that you have to use two to get the width you need, so you're left with bit of a burr when you remove the lip of the 2nd
