I look forward to seeing what you come up in testing. I'm more concerned about the sail damage than the batten itself failing. You could certainly carry a spare set as well. Personally I'm a lot more

I see that this grounding strap is attached to the end cap of the heat exchanger. Mine is connected to an area on the exchanger where the paint is removed and then to the pan of the generator.

Dear Jean-Pierre, I found that the best attachment points on the boat are the stern cleats. I do not understand why you would want the bridles attached to the mid ship cleats. When you need to

Kent, The generator has a transfer switch that switches from shore power to generator power after 10 seconds. This is so you don’t electrocute an electrician working on the dock while running your

Thank you for the info Dave, I can see how over time the battens, particularly if they are left partially rolled in heavy air can have high dynamic stresses and cause fatigue on the stainless steel.

Jose, He and I are both sailmakers but he's a third generation sailmaker and older than I am. His experience was that the battens ended up breaking and causing damage to the sail if I recall

Hi Kent, The March A/C pump has NO IMPELLER - its a centrifugal pump. There were some conversations on Cruisers Forum on this topic about a year ago. You could conceivably use a 24VDC pump on the

Bill, The generator has a floating ground like the propulsion engine. Even the starter relay has a floating ground. The generator motor is not connected to the bonding. Fair

AnnSophie, Thank you so much for posting these swivel instructions. I think we have another "guru" to help us understand what we are getting into. Kent SM243 Kristy From: "'N4796P@...'

Hello Gang, I am about to purchase this equipment. Some customisation of the basic design is planned; I want the bridle attached at the mid ship cleats, then running aft for a turn on the aft cleats

Hello Lady Annila, many thanks for this hint. It is exactly what we need at this time. Best regards Armin SY ASHIA, SM2k, #357 Am 24.11.2014 um 14:31 schrieb

Hi folks, I have just uploaded an instruction on how to maintain your forestay swivel. We have a SuperMaramu from 1998 but I think the swivel construction is the same for more models. Hope this

I didn't know that was possible, Alan. On Kristy, the generator doesn't start producing 220V AC until it had been running for about 10 sec. I guess that's ok if you're not worried about the impeller

Yup, mine is the same , #437, and it is connected to the grounding system BUT it still corrodes....mine needs a really good cleanup and the endcaps replacing. The Onan is not a very well designed unit

Terry & Dena, Also, take a look at this photo album: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/amelyachtowners/photos/albums/1489622282 Bill BeBe 387

The following is the way things were built on #387: The original heat exchanger has a ground strap from the bolt on one of the clamps holding the heat exchanger to the central ground lug on the drain

Dave, can you be more specific about the problems your sailmaker had with with the Rutgerson roller battens ? Is it a problem with durability or jamming? I had the chance to play with them and I
