Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Furling Gearbox Differences
Hi James,
Interestingly, these reduction gears are sold as "permanently lubricated" with gear oil (close, but not generic SAE 90 - you can google the specific oil). HOWEVER, the expected applications

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Furling Gearbox Differences
Bill,
Good point about the low hours accumulated on a gearbox. Does the replacement of the shaft seals require opening the gearbox?

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Furling Gearbox Differences
I am pretty sure it doesn't (much) matter which you use. After all, even on a heavily sailed boat we run REALLY low duty cycles on these gear boxes. Think about it, in a really busy day of sailing,

The AC42 is the B&G autopilot computer, not a navigation computer.
Our primary charts are on the Zeus, where we have Navionics charts. We do have a second set of charts as a back up--all on

Re: Duo 60 Desallator pressure problem
Duane,
There is a mechanical, adjustable back pressure valve on the brine output. That is controlled by the knob on the panel.
While the logic board does monitor the pressure, but it has no control

Re: C Drive - service kit 400EUR???

Something sounds very strange... I don't remember exactly, it's been a year since I last ordered these for our Super Maramu, but a price of less than 150 euros seems more in line with what I

In short
No, you do need the wearing out bearing - it costs!
Yes you can get the seals and o ring elsewhere + they are standard sizes.
Usually every 2 years. Keep an eye on the oil header tank in the

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Duo 60 Desallator pressure problem
It's on the 24V motor. I had too many problems with the "bendix" bearings on the original pulleys, so I removed them from the motors. I replaced them with one solid pulley on one motor, and I chose

Duo 60 Desallator pressure problem
I'm having an issue with the watermaker where the pressure becomes erratic after running normally for 15 to 90 minutes. You could watch a video of the pressure dial here:

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: leech length on mizzen ballooner on 54
Bill,
When we sailmakers supply a sock (aka spinnaker sleeve), we base the length on the leech, not the luff. You want to be able to easily reach the clew and it's okay to have some of the sail

Transmission through-hull maintenance
Hi
I guess the largest through-hull hole is the transmission down to the propeller. Does it need any maintenance (excuse the ignorance), such as replacing the hull seals every X years or
