Hi Jeff, Assume this is the lifting motor you're talking about, not the thruster motor, correct? Curious if you've considered taking it to an electric motor shop for a look-see. Could be a simple fix.

I'd be interested if you have a solution, my Furuno helm plotter doesn't display the time either ...everything else is possible but not time..... Cheers Alan Elyse SM437

Duane, Great story. I haven't been able to get our Furuno RD-30 to display the time (even though it is receiving it from NMEA) and it just never even crossed my mind to call Furuno about this

Hello Jeff, I noted you have the 54, I thought they use a completely different bow thruster. Sincerely, Alexandre --------------------------------------------

Greeting Amelians! I encountered an inability to raise my thruster unit. I was able to wire it directly to raise it, and with further testing it seems that the motor itself works

Hi Jeff, I'm currently in Stuart with my AMEL54, but will be in PalmBeach tomorrow (by car). Would be nice to meet and share experience! Let me know where to meet and what time(s) work for you.

I have had limited sailing on Cats and then not on an ocean . One big con is the additional cleaning which was just mentioned , I have often made that comment to my wife as a reason that I would not

Hi Eric, Yes, they were in Simpson Bay for three weeks in January, now they are returned to Fort Lauderdale where they bought a lovely home last year. They looked for you and Kimberlite in the

Porter, Mybrother has two Lagoon 500s that work commercially. Despite what some may sayabout the brand they are built to take a knocking and are really good boats.They are probably better looking

this is my first comment. I don't own an Amel - yet. I know Eric and his Kimberlite and that was my first inkling that Amel was the boat I might cruise in. Then i sailed on a new 55' Amel. Nice. So

Steve, Shortly after we bought our Amel, the plotter at the helm (Furuno RDP 148) wouldn't work. I sent it to Furuno for repairs, and after testing it was unrepairable (no charge for this service).

I did tons and tons of research before deciding Cat vs. mono. My reasoning was bouncing back and for for several months but ultimately came down to a couple of safety considerations and a couple of

Good morning Porter, This is not really a question for this forum… We are proud Amel owners, we choose our vessel because we believe in them. Personally, I have looked at hundreds of sailboats
