Good morning Terry, I purchase all the windlass parts from Imtra - imtra.com I talked to Patrice Patrice@... 508-995-7000 Sincerely, Alexandre SM2K #289 NIKIMAT Royal Palm Yacht Basin, Fort

I need to replace the windlass up and down switch. The rubber boot has torn and the up switch is intermittent. These are ones mounted to the top of the windlass housing. Does anyone know where to get

We have a Highfield 340 Aluminum with an 18 HP 2 Stroke. The dingy is 11'2". It has a double floor and weights 123 lbs and can accommodate 6 people and still plain. When at sea we put it across the

Hello everyone, As per Ann-Sofie’s post, we chose a Caribe 290 in alu, double bottom. Under 50 kgs and takes our Yammy 15 HP in perfect harmony. Goes like stink too and surprisingly dry ride. Good

I am a firm believer in an aluminum bottom, no larger than 2.8m, Caribe or AB inflatable dinghy. Also with a motor that will move/tow your Amel. I have 15hp, but probably 9 would work. There are

Consider that your dinghy is like your shopping car. You use it a lot! We have a Caribe CX8, choosed that due to size since we have store in on the aft deck using a slide to get it on and off. But it

Kent, I am talking about the knobs on the top of the genoa and main furling switches in the cockpit. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite SM 376

On our Santorin we had a Caribe hard fibre glass bottom Dinghy. Sat on the foredeck for long passages. Certainly needed in the Pacific atolls. Cheers Chris Smither, santorin Sloop Akwaaba

Eric I had one of these switches break a few months back and Amel were excellent as they sent a replacement immediately by express mail. I managed to bypass the switch with a temporary replacement to

I'm not sure what you're talking about Eric. There's the one that disengages the motor on the Genoa furler...trying to picture a knob on the main furler??? Kent SM243 Kristy

I wish I could help. Have you tried Amel? It never ceases to amaze me the thought, planning and execution that went into the design of our boats. Bill Rouse BeBe Amel 53 #387 sent from my tablet On

I never appreciated how useful the two knobs tops that control the furlers until one broke. Any Idea where I can get a replacement for the round flat one? Fair Winds Eric S,

Colin, That is exactly how I did it . I had an eye spliced into each bridle so it would easily fit over the cleats, I used chafe gear at the chocks an where the bridle went between the

Eric With all that experience I was wondering if you attached directly on to the rear cleats then through the rear leads? Also did these appear secure enough without further

Colin, There is no rush, I have been sailing with the Jordan drogue for over 15 years. I have had the Unfortunate luck to have had it out 3 times. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite SM 376

Eric Will let you know in the new year however there were a number of others who also purchased from Roddy previously so someone else on the site may be able to check earlier than I could? Colin &

Colin, I would be interested to hear what you find. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite SM 376
