Hi Pat, reading your posts brings back happy memories of Amels gathering at the Annapolis boat show. Lot of water under our keel since, just clicked over 16000 miles.

Re: [Amel] triatic
Danny and Yvonne SIMMS
Hi Pat, a friend with a SM has just gone through the process of removing the extrusion. He had a rigger do the job. Screws and rivets removed and try as they may they could not separate the extrusion from the motor, including taking the forestay off into the riggers workshop and using all the usual methods to loosen it. In the end they decided there was sufficent surplus length in the extrusion to allow them to cut it off flush and then dig the piece out of the motor top. Good luck.

Date: Friday, 1, April, 2011, 2:22 AM I am dropping my mast next Monday to rerig and I need to decide to add insulators to the triatic or not.I probably won't ever be using it as an antennae so I can not see the reason for the insulator and neither can the rigger.. Is there another purpose it serves that justifies the expense? Secondly,regarding the headstay ,outside of drilling out the rivets and backing off the set screws, is there anything else that would prevent the forestay aluminum extrusion from come free from the motor.I do not want to start lifting the mast and find that the furler will not seperate.

Re: [Amel] SM2K Yanmar RPM
Danny and Yvonne SIMMS
Hi Mark, just to add to the ideas. I have spent many years around diesel engines in a variety of applications. A regular maintenance need is injector servicing and a dark smoky exhaust is one indicator that it is time for that service. Fuel is driven through the injectors into the combustion chamber at very high pressure though a small nozzle. Over time this nozzle wears and increases in diameter leading to over fueling and a smoky exhaust, particularly under load.

I would expect a performance decrease as well as the smoke. Injector servincing is not a big deal. You need a competent tradesman with the right tools to remove them and a specialist service centre to sevice them..

I'm current with all the filters, etc. The fact that my RPM's are within the same ballpark as when the previous owner acquired the boat from Amel is consistent with that. Are my RPM's in line with what I should be expecting? Or is there something about the application that makes the RPM's I'm getting OK. If my RPM's are as expected, I'd think there would be other owners who had been told the same thing as me. BTW, how can you tell if the autoprop reaches full pitch?

Re: [Amel] sensor of the bilg pump

Lior, the tube is held by and plastic clip. it comes our very easy. Do NOT
forget to unplug the on off switch also at the top of the tube. Keep a bucket handy as the business end of the tube have an unwelcome present for you. Check the float the string is at the top. Clean the tube and the float to be sure it moves freely in the tube. There is a rod with a pin in it that the string attaches to be sure it is in the slot in the tube. This is not a big deal to service for fix. Good luck.

Hi John, running up to 1500 RPM is normal for most all alternators. They will
continue to charge at lower speed once they get a shot of 1500 or more.
