Re: Wireless wind instrument
I have replaced my broken wired NASA Clipper with the wireless sensor unit. Works fine, is cheap and data is transfered fast enough. So no problems.

Re: Inverter Replacement
Here's another experience with the Xantrex:
My original Xantrex 1800 was installed (by a professional electrician) in Dec of 2016.
It failed in July of 2017 and was replaced by the manufacturer,

Good Morning Amelians,

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Anchor locker floor rotten

Good point about the possibility of accumulating weight in the bow lockers from a slow leak. It is pretty hard to get a perfect seal on a locker with such a large opening but I will do what

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Anchor locker floor rotten
On our SN the port bow locker has a factory installed drain plug with screw cap. It allows you to drain any water from the storage lockers into the chain locker which then flows to the bilge sump,

James,
I went to look for the name of the core material used, and I can't find it. My recollection is that 5/8 inch thick Dynacell was specified. Pretty much any of the PVC or Urethane foam core

A sealed locker for the stowage of wet chain/rode is a tough place for wood to survive for very long so I think that you are on the right track with removing the organics. Which foam core

That’s exactly what we did, plus a photo of the colours (they should be). I had the SANTORIN re done in black lettering, painted the background cream and put the letters on. Comparatively

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Anchor locker floor rotten
Oh yeah? It probably slowed it down a bit.., but once the moisture gets in, it spreads fast.. especially in plywood. Even marine ply.
I’m new to Amels, and every boat has it’s achilles tendon..
