We reviewed both boats thoroughly. For us, It really came down to staysail, which we have come to use in most conditions above 25 knots apparent with wind forward of the beam, a bit extra space due

Re: New Thread on A54 fridge pumps (ATTN: OLIVER Vela Nautica)
Arno,
I just measured and got 26+ volts.
The Frigoboat interface itself indicator shows 24v.

Re: New Thread on A54 fridge pumps (ATTN: OLIVER Vela Nautica)
Hi Jamie,
I’m surprised you measure 24 volt. When I did the same I measured exactly half the voltage of the 24 volt system (about 13 volts when you are on shore power).
Did you measure under load?

I just tested - you are right Jamie! The frigoboat interface outputs 24v (actually around 26.5 on my boat) to the pump!
I replaced the compressor a while back and had concerns because the Hella

Re: New Thread on A54 fridge pumps (ATTN: OLIVER Vela Nautica)
Jamie - 343 is the suffix you need.
Possible alternate solution: I was explicitly told by Penguin UK that the 4105-343 24v pump was tested by Frigoboat UK for continuous use as long as it was fed 12v

Re: sm 53 vs 54
I'm sorry In America so that would be 200,000. 54's are going between 450,000 and 500,000, conservatively you can get a 53 for 200,000 less than that. Purchase cash is separate from cruising cash,

Re: sm 53 vs 54
Both the SM & the 54 are good Amels. There are differences, advantages, and disadvantages.
You may not be aware, but I offer 1 hour free consulting to non-owners of Amel yachts.
Maybe you should check

sm 53 vs 54
How man 53 owners would trade up for a 54 if money were no object. Why or why not?
Very interested in a 54 but maybe a better choice to keep the extra 200g and get a 53?
Thanks for your help
