Hi Hanspeter, Quite easy, actually. Assuming it was bent while off the boat in a yard, just do the opposite of what bent it in the first place! :-) Seriously, though, I've bent several masts back

Yes I do. Got it from Steve and Liz. It is a 1992 M80T with about 4500 hours and in great condition. Contact me direct via email to discuss. Know Deltaville well. ric@... .

HI All. I recently had to replace both gearboxes on my Super Maramu and had both Cima motors refurbished. The secret to the white plastic sock is heat. You can use a hair drier or better yet a heat

Hello Craig I like your wordings :-) Take the mast down, bend it back so it is straight. I'm wondering how you will do that ? You have something invented in the US to do that. Let me know that is

Hi Ric in Annapolis: Are you saying you have a Perkins M80T engine to sell? what would be the cost, year and hours? I own SM #105 currently in Deltaville, VA. Thank you

All, On my Maramu #258, the 12 volt main mast furler motors are made by Cima in Italy, but are no longer available. Best to keep fixing what you have. Amel can supply a LeRoy Sommers replacement,

Hello Enio, You may want to reread Joel's earlier post about tuning the masts independently, starting with the main. You should consider the triatic to be part of the mizzen and ignore it until you

Hi Antonio, Yes, the covers on the furling motors do become rigid after many years and very difficult to remove or replace. I cracked one a few years back and Amel was able to replace at a

Hi guys, first year working on my Santorin, some questions: I want change the brush in the electric engine mounted on the boom and mast. Impossible remove the white cover without breaking, my gearbox

I have an extra 80T. Would you list your boat, number and most importantly location. I may be able to help Ric Bali Hai SN24 Annapolis

Thanks Veit. We are back home now. I am going to connect with Mark so we can address when we are next aboard. Thanks all for your advice and suggestions. Ian

Hello Pierre. Per your request the serial no of my Perkins M8OT is BB30145U550630. I need to replace the turbo charger. Do you know of a source?

Have you tried loosening the head stay? Joel F. Potter THE EXPERIENCED AMEL GUY 954-812-2485

Joel, Thanks for your reply and confirming what I believed, but did not know , the proper backstay tension. Pat SM Shenanigans

I read it with great interest, thanks. But I still have this problem : the upper part of my main mast is curved towards the bow (reverse bend). And I can not fix it by tighening the backstay. Could

Thank you again and again, Joel, for sharing your expertise here. That's the first time I've heard this about the mizzen back stays. My masts are straight and my mizzen back stays are about what

Hey Pat. There is also a very good rig tune instructional that I believe was placed in the Yahoo group from Olivier. Good question on the mizzen backstays. When you tune the rig, tune the main and
