Thanks The shroud covers were what I was looking for especially the 12mm ones. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite Amel Super Maramu #376

Hi Eric, They're not all in one place.... The shroud or guard rail covers are on P230 Turnbuckle covers on P229 Spreader boots P211 Cheers Alan Elyse SM437

Joel Thanks for your reply. And yes I now Beretts design office and yes I met Mr. Carteau back in 1998. The 54 Amel was designed by the Amel Team. Not by Henry Amel. Only my 2 cents word. I think my

HI Alan, I tried to find the plastic covers for the rigging wire in the Plastimo catalog. I need the large plastics for the cap stays. Would you please direct me to the page of the plastic

Thanks for your help Bill. I rechecked everything and got the same results. It appears the S3G has lost the ability to energize the "MOTOR" terminals when the SmartPilot should turn the wheel to

Hello Hanspeter. I think you are confusing the Amel 55 with the Amel 54. The Amel 55 hull and deck and rigging was designed by Berret and Racoupeau, a naval architecture firm located in La Rochelle

Duane, The reason I want you to go through the "drill" on the voltage, is because it is important. Raymarine only makes 12VDC clutches which means your Raymarine 24VDC drive has 12VDC

Hi Porter, that is a bummer on the motor. I am not familiar with the the triniquet furler, that must be a "54" feature. If the water inside the housing was fresh water the old motor might be

Gents, A question if you would. Sailing Martinique to Fort Lauderdale these two weeks. Stopped in Guadeloupe as the trinquet motor pooped out. Took it out and amel Martinique is sending a new one

Hi Jacob, The piece looks like it is made of some fiberglass material. The upper aluminum piece has a hole drilled in it. Possibly AMEL put the fiberglass thing in place so if there was too much

Bill, My friend Eric Forsythe has circumnavigated twice –(both ways) circumnavigated the Antarctic. Twice and numerous passages totaling over 325,000 miles and is going out again in July at age 85
