Just did the main engine exhaust from the mixing elbow to the muffler. Discovered how important bend radius is in the hose. Mine was 4 1/2 inches and I needed every bit of that plus some

Just did the ice blasting to the gel-coat of my AMEL SM in Belgium and put 3 layers of epoxy + 2 layers of antifouling. Ice blasting was very nice and gentle to the gel-coat. Paid EUR 3.000 gross for

Bill in your schematic, The relays are 12VDC control and 24VDC load circuit, easy to put a 2-3 amp fuse on the load circuit. I've searched for this relay and find it quite difficult to find the

Thank's I will check with them. That is what I am looking for, someone with experience who has done this. I am hoping to be able to make one with 6ft clearance under. Very Best Barry

Check with Amel Caraibes I believe there was a hardtop manufactured there a couple of years ago they should know which boat did it and who did the fiberglass work maybe the mold is still available

Hello Amel 54 owners, I have seen and been onboard some Amel 54's with custom Hardtops. Most are a little low in height. We are in Martinique since March and will probably be here for some time as the

Paul, 123bearing.com have them ! No one else seems to. Thanks again, Ian and Judy, Pen Azen, SM 302, Kilada

Thanks, Paul, I'll try them. Ian

Shiny, clean and new looking. Mark you can do my Bottom anytime.... Aras Grinius SV FIASCO Sharki #163

Wow, Jose, I’ve never had this happen on Kincsem. I guess the answer is not to go to a marina and anchor instead! Seriously, maybe you deploy a bit of the mizzen sail to change the rhythm? Je

Pat, HHN uses fairly large timbers for a boat our size - roughly 8"x8". It gave me just enough room to lay on my side, and use and grind the old epoxy back. It was gruelling work and OSHA would

Craig , I will buy some and give it a try. I don't mind risking my life to get the bottom paint off my boat, and as you said ,if they banned it in California it must be good. Now I know why my oatmeal

I'm about to replace the exhaust hose for the main engine from the waterlift muffler to the hull fitting. Seems a simple task, but I'd appreciate any tips from those who have already been there. I

I ordered a lot of seals and bearings from 123bearing.com, with quick delivery to Portugal Paul on SY Kerpa SM#259

Hi y'all, Has anyone found a source in the UK for the oil seal 29x 42x 8 ? I have been offered 29x41x8 and 28x42x6. I guess this last one would do but I would prefer to get the right one,

Jose, You might also consider locking the the mizzen traveller off the center line and tie a preventer line going from the end of the mizzen boom to an aft stanchion or pad-eye. Aldo Amel 55 Araucaria

Mark, So it sounds as though they were able to do most of the bottom of the keel,correct ? That surprises me ,I would have thought the keel would be too close to the ground to work on,unless it is on

Pat, I did some Google-ing and it looks like methylene choloride and/or N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is the stuff that really works but is toxic. If you're neither pregnant nor stupid, go for it, if you

Craig, It sounds like so much fun ,you did 5 yrs. later,just for giggles. I think I might give it a try,but they probably have removed all the stuff that made it work so well. Treated lumber used to

Pat, They are making a killing even at that price as it takes them only one day and it is pretty much just one guy doing the work. However, it was still worth the cost when you compare it to the time
