Good Morning There is a connection from the bathroom to this compartment if anything from the toilet leaks or drips from showering are going under the bathroom base they end up in there well at

Rudy and José, While one possibility is leaking around BT seals, I'd suggest also carefully checking the head/anchor wash intake manifold coming off the thru-hull valve. Mine got pinhole corrosion

I have LOTS of experience with water in that location, and totally agree with Bill. If, at one time, you had a lot of water in that bilge, some could have flowed over into a separate bilge under the

Jose, With the SM, at least 95% of the time, seawater in the area of the depth transducer and watertight bulkhead is seawater that has leaked past the bow thruster seals, as little as one drop at a

Same problem here! Any suggestion? Cheers -- Jose Prieto SV Wayag, SM 323 Currently Alicante, Spain

Tom, I changed mine to a top loading refrigerator, It is great as when you open the lid the cold air does not fall out like the front loading refrig. The drinks stay very cold if you wish. Eric

We finally got it out. The Amel diagram shows two foam seals and two lip seals. We found the two foam seals but only one lip seal. Did you all find one lip seal or two? -- Scott 2007 A54 #69 SV

When we bought Elyse in 2013, I didn't think I'd ever use it, but I do ! With just two on the boat it doesn't seem justified, but with 4 I have used it a lot. With just two on the boat, we wash dishes

Welcome Anke and Martin, welcome on aboard to this great group, I’m sure you will enjoy and appreciate your new Amel, as much as we do. We are cruising with our 54 in the Med and we winterize

That sounds good Dimitris, Had it still been in place when we bought Ocean Pearl we may have discovered its value. However I dont think I will change back. Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl
