Hi, Nice to see there are two of us now. Danny Simms SM 299 Ocean Pearl

Dennis, One other consideration, and for what it is worth...although we carried extra fuel on our circumnavigation in a Super Maramu, the most we ever used on a passage was 405 liters and that was on

Dennis, If the fuel tank or fuel lines on my Maramu ever fails, it appears the the fuel will end up in the sump, not on top of the freshwater tanks. I also really like the gravity feed aspect. I

Good deal count us in too. Alex we finally get to meet! John Clark SV Vent de Soleil SM 37 Great Bay. SXM

Maybe because the tank are located in a place easier to remove and easier to inspect. Maybe gravity fed. Also a think the fresh water tanks are insulated from the boat so if you were to loose your

Danny, Without removing the entire companionway slide, how did you get the veneer under the side rails? Or did you just leave that "as-was"? Bill Kinney SM160, Harmonie Culebra, PR

Woodcraft can supply teak veneer in 4 foot by 8 foot sheets that is bonded to a paper backing making it much easier to handle than raw veneer and it is only 1/42" thick (0.6mm) , so be careful with

I have to disagree with Bill Rouse here. I have dealt with a lot of different boats, and the Amel non-skid deck is absolutely one of the best out there. It is easy on bare skin, but is amazingly

I sanded down the door. Cut veneer to proper size. Glued and varnished

I will plan 17:00 Tuesday at Lagoonies. Alex from Nikimat is on my dock as well, and will see if I can get him to come along. Hope you can make it as well Eric. Steve Aloha SM72 St Maarten

Hello All, I appreciate and welcome everyones feedback on my issue with faux deck cracking and restoration/refurbishment. My next query relates to increasing the internal fuel storage capacity -

Dennis, I think that the non-slip surface on an Amel comes from the difference in surface height between the faux teak boards and the faux caulk. Those faux teak boards are gelcoat that was applied

Pat, Veneer at 1/8" is 3mm and is about as thick as it gets. Veneer comes thicknesses beginning at about 0.5mm...see the attached chart for inch comparisons. You are probably going to have to contact

My thanks to Bill for his suggestions. I'm curious if any owner has experienced 'cracking' of the faux timber material. Filling and sanding in the affected areas would need to be carefully done so

I would like to apply a teak veneer on my door , 1/8 " is as thin as I have found . I would need to take off the outer layer of the door which appears to be about 1/8 " to make room for the new

Ian, thx for the clarifications. I got the message from the beginning, but was interested in Your Details. Best - Daniel

Thought I would post these pictures and ideas. We wanted to place our 12" Garmin plotter/radar in a position where it would not obstruct instruments or a view of the deck and water. We also wanted

Thanks Bill. I'm not ready to redue the decks yet but was interested in the product because a friend had used it and was happy. Bob

Hi Bob, I have used KiwiGrip, not on an Amel, but on boats in a charter fleet. It is not really a rubber product, but rather a thick, hard-curing, latex. It has no give as you might think rubber
