Hi, I would need to double check but I would agree with Oliver re the triactic used as an SSB ASN receiver. At least the marking on the cables behind the shower light on Garulfo suggests that. And the

Hi Oliver, I don't think you are right. I have had the 802 for years and it does not need two aerials and the triactic is not intended for this purpose. Kind Regards Danny SM 299 Ocean Pearl

Arno, You are amazing. I have looked at the depressed area on many of these and did not connect the dots.

Hello, The triatic stay is used by the SSB ICOM M802 radio to receive DSC emergency trafic. Its only receiving on this antenna. The M802 needs 2 antennas. For regular transmissions it uses a backstay

Arno, Great idea – as having to remove all the sails, ropes etc. every time from the sail locker in order to lift out the step/cover in order to secure the locking pin stopped me more than once

Well this might explain when I have almost out the complete 100 meter new chain I purchased in NEW CAL last year while the counter says I only have 70 to 74 meter out. I thought I had been short

As you all know Amel recommends using a locking pin on the bowthruster when making passage. Although good advice not always practical as you need to open the cover in the sail locker. If that thing is

Paul - this is a very common problem solved with an inexpensive (<$20) replacement of the differential girdle spring on the upper end of the grammeter. A very easy do-it-yourself project. Cheers

Hi Arno, Bedankt voor de hulp. Ik zie dat je nog steeds hard bezig bent met LUNA – ze moet nu bijna perfekt zijn. Ik voel me bijna schuldig dat ik niet zoveel doe voor AMELIT😊 Wow – 10

Yup; I recognize those. I have those installed as well extras on board. Are these HARKEN switches? Thanks for the help. Best Regards Teun SV AMELIT A54 #128 COOMERA (near BRISBANE) QLD

Hi Roque, Thanks - this helps a lot. I don’t recognize the switches in your attachments so that indicates that my switches also have been replaced. That matches my impression of the original

I did all my switches in 2016 after I bought the boat in 2015. The switches that Bill shows the photo of is correct. I was in Marseille and Amel Hyeres would have done the change at no charge. I

Paul, a bit more information is needed to give you some help. How many hours are on the engine now? How many hours are on the oil in the crankcase now? Did you get maintenance logs at the

Teun If I may jump in, attached are pictures of the "old" switches,the ones that must be replaced. The new ones are bigger (see Bill's pic). They need a 43 mm diameterhole. Maybe you can check

Yeah, Luna has the weatherfax as well. So I'm guessing there is a antenna cable between the nav-station and the mizzen mast. Although the reception of this thing seems quite sketchy. The pictures I

Paul, It is a bit curious that this problem arose after your oil change. I wonder if the viscosity of the oil that was used for the change was lower than the original oil in the engine before the

Hi Teun, About the switches. As far as I know the replacement was changing the original Lewmar switches with Harken switches. Easy to see as it says so on the switch. On our Amel this was done, all

All clear; makes sense as AMELIT does have Weather Fax. Thanks. Best Regards Teun SV AMELIT A54 #128 COOMERA (near BRISBANE) QLD AUSTRALIA April 29, 202013:10:36 USA cell: +1 832

Now I think about it on AMELIT the SSB was connected to a special SSB antenna on the stern which broke off. Getting a new antenna from AMEL was difficult/impossible & another AMEL owner and I decided
