Hey Bill,
Hope all is well with you, sorry to hear you have not found the perfect Amel yet.
I believe the boat you are asking about was in Trinidad in the summer of 2016 when we were last there, and even looking fairly sad then. If the rumor I heard is correct, it is owned by someone from the West Coast of the US who passed away some time ago.
Good luck on your boat search, and say hi to Joanna for us.
Aloha,

The C drive does not have to be removed. The rubber collar is open to the sea. It is clamped to a bell in the hull. It does not usually need to be replaced. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite Amel Super Maramu #376

Hi All, I'm replacing the yanmar 4jh3-the eng mounts. It looks like I need to lift the eng frame 2 inches. There is a rubber boot that connects to the hull at the bottom of the C drive. If I disconnect the hose clamps at the top of that rubber boot will any oil spill out and will that allow me to lift the frame up. |

Hi , Here are some photos that might be helpful to change the motor mounts. The middle photo shows how I removed the coupling from the sail drive it is a very tight fit and when I installed the Amel modified coupling I took a few thousands of an inch from the inside of the coupling. The C drive shaft and the coupling are the exact same diameter. The other photos show the bolts that are used to reconnect the coupling. Fair Winds Eric

Re: Replacing eng mounts

Hi Mark that is awesome. Just what i needed. I have even done what Olivier says up to the point of removing the C drive mounts. Do you happen to have the picture he sent you. That would help me when i get someone to make the fitting. I can probably even ship you the fitting once i'm done.

Re: Replacing eng mounts
mfmcgovern@...
Alan,
I am going to replace our engine mounts later this year or early next. I asked Olivier Beaute if he had any tips for me and he sent me the following information : Hello Mark, this is something you probably can do, considering your "automotive" background. The main thing is to be meticulous. First about your questions: -You don't absolutely need to replace the VETUS coupling if it is in good condition: -the steel rods that hold the rubber "donuts" must not have moved from the steel hub, if so, replace the coupling -the holes for the bolts should not be damaged (ovalized), otherwise, replace the coupling However, you will probably need to replace the donuts, easy to buy from VETUS. If you need to replace the whole VETUS coupling, it is a standard coupling from VETUS, for a 35mm diameter shaft, with a key way for the C-drive input shaft BUT AMEL has the aluminium part machined in order it "enters" the gear-box flange. You will see this when the gear-box is disconnected from the coupling (and if you compare with your new VETUS coupling). Before touching the tools, make pictures and take notes (measurements of all the fittings, position of the nuts on the rubber mounts, position of the engine on the steel cradle, position of the shaft brake disc, etc...). Start with disconnecting the hoses that could prevent you from moving the engine backwards on its cradle. Then undo the coupling bolts and the engine steel supports' bolts (attaching the engine on the steel cradle). Then move the engine backwards enough to remove the coupling bolts. Undo the C-drive bolts of its rubber mounts. Remove these mounts. the C-drive will be held by the big rubber sleeve at the bottom. Lift the engine just enough to be able to lift the cradle and remove and replace the YANMAR mounts with their lower nut set approximately like the previous ones were. Re-install the C-drive mounts. Then comes the alignment process. AMEL uses a tool which is a steel coupling machined so that its aft side "enters" the gear-box flange (see pictures and drawing). You can also pre-install the new coupling and adjust the position of the mounts. First bring the engine forward and make sure the coupling is centered with the gear-box flange, and can enter the gap in the flange. Then move the engine a little bit backwards and check that the gap between the flange and the aft side of the coupler is even all around the circumference. To adjust this, you need "thickness wedges" (used in the automotive industry) and play with the rubber mounts nuts to make the gap even. Then bring the engine forward and tighten the bolts on the cradle and on the mounts. The advantage of using the tool AMEL uses is that it is easier to install while checking the gaps. If you need to make one, here's a drawing of the alignment tool for a YANMAR 4JH3-HTE. The inside diameter (C-drive input shaft) is 35 mm. The outside diameter is 100 mm. The diameter of the part that enters the gear-box flange cylindric gap is 62.8 mm, thickness 3 mm. You should use a VETUS fixed coupling for 35mm shafts, then have it machined to make the 62.8mm "plug" and drilled for the four bolts that should match the flange holes. I think AMEL still sells the VETUS machined coupling, you will ask Maud when she's back from holidays. Hope this is clear enough. Best regards. -- Olivier BEAUTE / ATLANTIC YACHT SURVEY 10 allée du Bout dehors 17000 LA ROCHELLE Tel: +33 546 522 147 Mob: +33 674 028 243 http://atlanticyachtsurvey.com Now you see why I recommend Olivier to everyone. Hope this helps you. Mark McGovern SM 440 Cara Deale, MD USA |
