Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Globe Run Dry Impellers
Hi Bill,
The ONAN pump is made by Sherwood, but it's made in 2 pieces, the one I put on is also Sherwood but a one-piece casting - Sherwood sell it as a direct replacement.
I see no difference in run

I am 99% sure that the Onan OEM pump is made by Sherwood.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Globe Run Dry Impellers
I would be curious to know what rpm the Onan impeller runs? I agree, Yanmar rw impellers basically die from age rather than from hours. Heat seems to often be involved with accelerated wear. I

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Globe Run Dry Impellers
The question is WHY does the ONAN eat impellers ?
Is it something to do with the design of that pump housing?
I changed mine for a Sherwood single piece machined pump housing, made no difference.

Re: Mizzen Roller Reefing
Hi all,
I was able to disassemble the mizzen gearbox after removing the mizzen and the mizzen foil. It appears that the shaft connecting the winch handle to the gearbox has frozen up in its housing.

Gary,
There is also a capacitor on the 230volt fan over the generator. I believe Bill Rouse posted photos of changing that capacitor.

I think this modification has numerous issues and would caution the attempt to re-engineer what Cummins Onan has done.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Globe Run Dry Impellers
This is intriguing. It would seem the failure rate of the pump would be less likely than the impellers. What do you do with the original mechanical pump? Leave it in place without the impeller and

Since you directed your original question to Olivier, I did not respond. My boat is different than the original Santorin in that a former owner installed a 6kw generator and converted to 110v
