Hi Duane. Happy NewYear! I couldn't make that sound link work on my iPhone. On my 24v motor, the housing that covers the flywheel was loose from a bolt that unscrewed itself. It made a serious

Oh, sorry Vlad. No, the only thing I've done to that motor since I've owned the boat is replace the start solenoid. I didn't even take it apart to look at it when I rebuilt the

I am thinking there must be a problem with the clutch mechanism for the 24v motor. I ran it on the 230 volt motor and it ran fine for 30 minutes and then shut itself down. I restarted with the 230

Happy New Year!!! Did you do anything to 24V motor? Vladimir 202 258 1916

Hi Vladimir, and Happy New Year! I replaced the valves and valve seats and the seals. The pump head was in good shape, so I didn't replace it. Mine is not the duo, only 24v motor D60. The parts were

Hi Kent, I would like to ask several questions about watermaker pamp work that you successfully completed. Where did you buy parts? Parts from DESSALATOR are rather expencive. Some part can be

Happy New Year Paul and congratulations on your purchase. The Leroy Somer motors are used on the main mast furler and the main boom outhaul only. It would definitely pay to have it repaired, They are

Happy New Year! After a many months of lurking in the shadows and absorbing a wealth of knowledge in which I’m extremely grateful, we purchased our SM 215 Trillium last summer through Joel Potter.

Thanks, Rink and Marloes, We are looking forward to being there early September. Ian and Judy, Pen Azen, SM 302 Hyeres

Hi Duane. It's not a problem to rebuild the pump. I did it a few months ago. The parts to rebuild were ~$700. I'm not on the boat now so I don't have the part numbers, but mine is just a 24v DC

Thanks Alexandre! I would not be surprised if they are not the same. I'm probably going to have someone else fix it...makes it tough when the ID plate is gone and you don't have a model number.

Good afternoon Duane, Sorry about your issues… I have the Duo 60, but my SM is from 2000, so not sure it is the same. If your internet is fast enough here is a

Sorry for the mutliple messages...I'm at anchor and the link keeps getting "sticky". Does anyone have a guess as to what Cat Pump Model might be on the Duo 60 from 2005? Thanks, Duane

I believe that the manual may be referring to oil half filling the sight glass. The sight glass is front and center on our 160 liter pump made by CAT, and I believe that your DUO 60 has a CAT pump

When I remove the oil cap, I see no oil. The manual says it should be half full??? There appears to be a sight glass on the back of the white housing and it appears to show full, but it's hard to

Hi Ian and Judy We have been in both Leros marinas and they are both fine. Agree with Craig and Catherine that there is not much to do in winter ( even in summer it's limited). For a safe feeling I

Craig and Katherine, Thanks--looks as though we could be stuck for choice ! Nice position to be in. We are not anticipating needing any work done( famous last words...) and prefer to leave the boat

Hello John, Congratulations on the beginning of your great adventure. Gayle and I are on dock 4 and will be here until 20 January. If you have questions or need help, let us know. Look forward to

Today, the watermaker stopped working before it got up to pressure. I went into the engine room while Peg restarted it and when it neared the green zone on the dial there was a shrieking sound and it
