Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Onan Generator strange issue Mark Erdos #32348 Duane, This is incredible. As I think about it, it is the only possible solution for your Onan filling with fresh water. You certainly titled the post correctly “strange issue” When we next haulout, I will check the valve. Thanks for all the details. This was quite enlightening.

Subject: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Onan Generator strange issue Mark, It was most definitely the flush valve at the watermaker pre-filter. I verified it this way: Do this overnight so there are minimal other factors such as use of the freshwater system. 1.On the hard so no ocean to complicate things 2. Empty seachest and remove seachest lid 3. Close seachest thru-hull valve and leave the freshwater pump ON 4. Ensure watermaker flush valve set to provide seawater to watermaker 5. In the morning if the seachest has freshwater in it, the flush valve is leaking. Mine was half full in the morning. This will also work if you are in the water and are sure the seachest thru-hull is not leaking. You could empty the seachest and wipe it down with freshwater (so you can check the salinity) to be sure. For a double check, the next night do the same process but in #3 leave the freshwater pump OFF. If no water the second night you are absolutely sure it's the flush valve leaking. I will be adding a ball valve between the freshwater pump and the watermaker flush valve. There is no danger from the freshwater leak thru the watermaker flush valve as long as one of the following conditions are met: A. Seachest thru-hull valve is open (any freshwater pressure will go to the sea before the genny), or; B. Seachest lid is removed so the freshwater leaking past will spill into the bilge (recommended if you are hauled out and living aboard with the freshwater pump on). Duane Wanderer, SM#477

Re: Onan Generator strange issue greatketch@... #32347 Duane, You certainly convinced me, and I admit I was skeptical! In in the freshwater flush line to my watermaker I had added a carbon block filter to the fresh water feed line to remove any last traces of chorine from dock water that might be in the tank, so I already have one ball valve in line to isolate that from the pressure water system, and the previous owner had already installed another ball valve just before the Dessalator three way valve. That makes two... If I keep them all shut during normal operation, I expect to never see the problem...

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Generator Flooded with Fresh Water VLADIMIR SONSEV #32346 Bob, Did you consider just using 2 twoway valves? I am considering that and I would like to know your opinion.

I emailed Duane rather than posting, hoping to sort things out instead of having a flurry of back and forth posts and bounced ideas off of Bill while we were confirming the problem. When I saw Duane's post evolving I emailed him to suggest a possible cause--a slow (bypass) leak from the desalination 3-way valve between the freshwater to the saltwater systems and offered a simple test: observe the water level in the strainer with the seacock (sea intake ball valve) closed and the fresh water system pressured up. If it rises over time--even slowly--it is a problem. Even with a very slow leak it will continue to push water into the sea water manifold. It seems that the generator loop is the way out for this water. The diesel engine raw water loop (fortunately) and the desalination filters are higher and for some reason the water does not escape through the AC loop (I am guessing it has something to do with the way salt water is selectively diverted to the 3 AC units). Of course, if the seacock to the strainer is open (either on-land or in the water) pressure will not build up and cause a problem. I had had the same problem but happened to catch it quickly as I was trouble shooting for the source of the fresh water leak. Because the bypass leak can be very, very small (and still cause major problems over time) it can be difficult to detect by noticing excessive freshwater pump cycling. Like Duane, I had heard my fresh water pump cycle just once in the middle of the night. Also, difficulty cranking the generator can be a sign of a full lift muffler. It is probably only after the muffler and exhaust hose fills that water will back into the generator. The problem is solved by installing a new 3-way valve. I am sure that Dessalator and Amel used a good valve, but after 10 years of exposure to salt water, a bit of electrolysis, etc, and perhaps lack of being worked it can develop a very slow leak that potentially could lead to a very big problem. I think that 3 way valves may be more susceptible to these kinds of problems than 2 way ball valves because the openings are closer. I did not post at the time because I thought I had just made a procedural error. I have a 2 way ball valve between the salt water manifold and 3 way. Had I closed that during non-use of the Dessalator there would not have been a problem. I have just learned that it is not standard on Amels. I would, however suggest considering the valve and it is pretty easy to add if you are replacing your 3-way. If you have a leak in the filters or somewhere else in your desalination system you can still operate your engine and generator and it is handy when working on your system. It also prevents a potentially expensive problem if the 3 way valve develops a bypass leak over time. Occasionally I will forget to open it before making water but immediately see no low water pressure--I always look for this because I am also checking to make sure the low pressure feed pump is operating. Checking the oil in your generator before every operation is not a bad idea. Bob, KAIMI SM 429 Cavtat, Croatia

Re: Replacing AMFA Fresh Water System by Jabsco greatketch@... #32342 In my experience Jabsco pumps work, but have a fairly short lifetime in the kind of use they get on a boat where people live full time. They are cheap enough that you can get two and keep a spare if you like them. My OEM fresh water pump had been changed to a Jabsco long before I bought Harmonie, and it was time to replace it again. I ended up with pumps made by an Italian company, Marco. They are gear pumps with a variable speed controller. Quiet, and smooth flow. Very few moving parts. Medium priced. Check back with me in 10 years and I'll let you know how they last! Bill Kinney SM160 Harmonie Culebra, P.R.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Flag Registration seafeverofcuan@... #32337 Ron, There are numerous postings on this site regarding insuring vessels in a country outside your normal residence, generally due to more attractive premiums which save money. The most import fact that seems to be continually overlooked is that if there is a claim, then the policy holder will be subject to the laws, jurisdiction and currency of the country where the policy is written. Part of the reason premiums for blue water sailing are high is to cover the repatriation costs of the boat to an area where the required level of skills are available to correctly repair a damaged yacht. Often, due to the nature of build process that is not straight forward with an Amel. If anyone is really serious about sailing overseas then flag and register your vessel correctly and carry notarized copies of everything for presentation on arrival at a new port. Any form of clever short cuts re. flags or registration documents will eventually lead to a nightmare somewhere. Brazil and Argentina have numerous vessels mostly European, that have been seized due to incorrect paperwork, neatly described as "legal piracy" by insurance companies. I was asked for a US $15k bribe by three officials to release my boat from Brazil which I refused to pay. I had weeks of hassle trying to get cleared and eventually joined a French rally to get lost in a crowd and cleared out with a group. The crew of non USA flagged vessels privately owned, will only be accepted into USA territory if they have been issued with the appropriate visa before arrival. In my experience this is a zero tolerance policy and no matter how long or far you have been on passage, you will be turned away. Mexico will accept on line temporary permit applications for your vessel if your are Canadian or American, all others have to arrive there first and it difficult to achieve due to lack of knowledge form their officials. All the correct information is out there. My two cents worth is, full time cruising is hard enough, why would anyone want to make it harder just so someone who doesn't give a damn can take their home away?. Fair winds.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Painting deck stripes - how much paint is needed?? Colin - ex SV Island Pearl #32335 Thanks Bill Pardon my dumb question now but what is a striping tool? Is it a roller the size of the stripes and then, to get the perfect quality as on your boat, did you need to tape up all the brown along the edges of each stripe?

Re: Onan Generator strange issue John Clark #32334 Hi Duane, I'm glad you got it figured out...and Genny is still alive. I'm in Lauderdale waiting for plane back to St.Maarten. After reading all the help and troubleshooting in this thread, I am going to spend some time looking over my plumbing as well. I am rebuilding the watermaker plant soon so this is a good time to contemplating some rerouting and extra isolation valves. Oh, and inverter arrived safe and sound.. still owe you dinner!
