Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Mainsail outhaul gearbox

Looks like you will need a new gearbox (ouch) from Amel.
I was fortunate to get the last two disassemble

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Mainsail outhaul gearbox
Hi Mike, If you think you will need a new gearbox and shaft, the simplest solution is the one adopted by Amel in Guadeloupe for us when we were in the same position---take a saw and cut through

This is to confirm that the "bulb" for the tanks on the left of the compressor is original Amel built.
