Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: SM Sea Chest Specifications
Hi,
Mine is a standard Vetus sea chest with strainer. They are in the Vetus catalog.
It is easy to identify in the catalog.
I ash my strainer in a bucket in the starboard aft corner of the cockpit

Re: SM Sea Chest Specifications
Hi,
Does anyone have the size, model number and perhaps a source for the strainer for the Super Maramu 2000/Millenniums? I usually spray it out outside the engine room and outside the cockpit and it

Re: Mainsail furler - manual crank problem
Hi Duane,
I had this issue a couple of years ago. I replaced the manual gearbox .... at great expense from Amel !
The upper bearing on the main gearbox is a trap for salt water. I regularly wash it

Mainsail furler - manual crank problem
I've overhauled the mainsail furler gearboxes and I was dry-fitting them back on before I painted them when I realized that the manual furler for the mainsail foil in the mast is stuck fast. I cannot

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Amel SM Solar panel and gantry
I am not at sure what they were referring to when they think it might be "a little high." You can trim it to any height you want. Shorter is probably a better esthetic choice, but full head room is

Thanks all, very helpful as I plan on installing one within the next 6 months.
I'm assuming these are all schedule 80 tubing.

I also installed the Atlantic Towers arch and agree with Pat about the 45 degree post. Mark's set up on Cream Puff is also strong. We've sailed about 3000 blue water miles and not experienced any
