I left my SM 2000 "MAIA" 293 in the care of the excellent late Ray Eaton who was the Amel technical expert in Florida from December 2002 to April 2005. He found a safe berth for me in a canal at the

Before leaving for cruising in late 2009, we installed an 11 gallon Isotemp hot water heater. We chose it as we wanted a high quality unit. Just over 2 years from install the heating element failed

I have am AMEL 54 which is presently in Annapolis, MD. I will be taking it south for the winter around the first of December. I am looking for a good marina that has reasonable rates, close to airport

Hi Dennis I am in Queos and I recently flew a surveyor down from the states it was very reasonable (I think like $1300 airfare and all. I am out of town but will be back on Monday and can get you the

I've got a set of those screwdrivers with the 90 degree bend but the screws aren't budging. With access the way it is, it's tough to get enough pressure against the fastener. I didn't have much time

My fault, I read too quickly. :-) JL

Hi JL, I found the outside and inside plans in the Xalol folder But on those plans I cant see any baffles in the fuel tank. There is in the water tank, though. Cheers Geza

Dave, I know they make screwdrivers with a 90 bend at the tip, lots of repositioning but would do the trick. I'm sure you'll get it all sorted out. All is well indeed. We're aboard, currently in

Hi Geza, The plan shows something that could be called baffles. Check in the photos section. I can also send it to you if necessary. Regards JL

Dave, On the newer Maramu's the fasteners are visible around the perimeter of the table and removal is pretty straight forward. Some of the screws are really hard to get to because they're basically

Hi Mauro, I also have an Euros 41 and thinking about adding inspection holes to the fuel tanks. Do you remember if the tanks on the Euros has baffles inside? Cheers Geza SV Rotor Auckland, New

Hi Dave, It's been 11 years since I removed the table on Air Ops but if I remember correctly, the 6 large screws around the perimeter of the floor board it's mounted on were the only thing holding it

We have Maramu #29. I want to clean the water tank so the table needs to come up to access the forward section. I've found 6 bolts so far and there's some screws that are really tough to reach. Still

Thanks, Lars. I always moor in the dozens of small beaches, anyway. You can also moor within the San Antonio port, just go to the right, in front of the hotel beach. But if you want to see something

Golfito, I just had Martiel Barriel out of Guadeloupe do the survey on a boat I am buying. He was suggested as an Amel surveyor by the respected Amel broker Jean Paul in Martinique. Martial knows

Hi Kent, Thanks for the documentation insight. I am almost certain that I will go the same route. My old Dreamtime was a US documented boat and I had zero problem 'importing' her into the BVI

Hello Duncan, We registered SM #353 Indecent in St. John, USVI even though we were living in Virginia at the time. Congratulations and good luck, George and Kim Cerillo #353
