[Amel] Re: Mounting of AIS GPS ANTENNA
Eric & Richard,
VHF is line of sight and rarely bounces. Mounting at the top of the main mast gives you around 10 miles further reach than mounting on a rail. The "range gained" formula is: 1.17

Re: [Amel] Painting a SM
We just did our SM w/Trinidad SR and it took 5.5 gal. 2 hd coats. We sanded off (using 60 grit did not get to the Hull!) the CSC ablative it didn't work nearly as well as the Trinidad.
Have fun.

Re: [Amel] Replacing Standing Rigging
If You are in the Annapolis area look up Madden Mast they are as good as it gets. Has something failed or broken?
Good luck

Painting a SM
I was wondering how many gallons of bottom paint you all use to do 2 coats
of paint and an extra coat at the water line.
I have had my boat painted many times but something unusual happened

Eric,
You will loose a lot of distance with VHF by mounting it low.
Our AIS receiver which currently shares the AM/FM antenna on the main mast. The AM/FM antenna on SM #387 is identical to the VHF

Re: Loosing oil from Furler Genua
Hello Casper
Yes it is normal to loose greas from the bottom of your furling drum. Amel fills the entire foil with grease to help the foil to turn. I am sure at some point this needs to be replaced.

Hey, Y'all,

Hello Casper and Maud,
Sorry to hear about your furler problem. We have not had any leaking from Genua furler and I do not believe that leaking is normal; seems a seal has failed. On our SM 72

Hi,
We are considering buying a Super Maramu from 1991, however with engine and generator from 2007. What would be an appropriate price for a boat this old? Is 200.000 Euros too much asked? And
