Great idea Bill, Here is our entry " SM #332, Island Pearl II, 2019, Colin & Lauren Streeter " Cheers Colin

All, At the request of many members of our group, I have added a WORLD TOUR LISTING to the main page of our group: AmelYachtOwnersGroup.com. I inserted "SM 387 BeBe 2017 Bill & Judy Rouse" to show

Hello Joerg , Bill & Paul, We were able to tighten the rudder gland . It was necessary to remove the quadrant. It took a while to release all the connections but it was straightforward. Of course the

Mine has cable steering and I can tighten the nut without removing the quadrant. Cheers, Paul S/Y Ya Fohi - Amel 54 #98 - Grenada

Airmar makes sonic speed sensors and one is installed on my A55, most recently replaced in 2018. I would ask them what the right sensor is - they make sensors that work via NMEA 2000, for example.

Hi Stuart, on my boat you can turn the large nut with the Amel spanner without removing the quadrant. The plate on my boat (circled in red) is just to lock the nut in place - it presses against one

Paul, As recently as 4 months ago a member of this group purchased new Sonic Speed sensors. I believe what happened is that B&G stopped producing them about 5 or 6 years ago, then somehow, a supply

Bill, As I understand, B&G no longer support the Sonic Speed, and neither do A+T Instruments. This being the case, is there a recommended alternative system? I did hear of a combined forward

Hi Stuart, I do not know how your rudder stock is configured as Kimberlite is a 53. If is like mine…. The nut on my quadrant is about 60 mm. If I had a wrench on board that size it would not fit

Stuart, The last time I did this on a 55, I removed the quadrant because it was easier to do with the quadrant removed. I believe you might be able to do it without the removal, but that will depend

Hello Jorg, Thank you very much for your reply with photograph. We have the large Amel spanner but no inspection plate... Do we have to remove the quadrant and it’s connections to access the rudder

Hi Dan We made our inspections hatches in the diesel tank winter 2012-2013 and we used industrial rubber suitable for petro chemical products. No problem what so ever, so far. Knock on

Hi Daniel, I removed the inspection port about 10 years ago. I used a truck inner tube as the material to make a new gasket. I have had no problems since. I opened the tank because there was debris

Hi all, I posted this question on a previous thread about fuel tank cleaning. And I've not found a good previous discussion of the topic on the forum. I'm looking for the right material to replace the

I agree that it is about 100-150 liters left in the tank. 1)I would also suggest that it is a good time to remove the inspection plate on the tank and take a look at the inside of the tank. You

Hi Craig,. Thanks for the recco on the fluid. Yes, unfortunately coolant is another of those mystery fluids where you are either in a well stocked parts store and faced with a myriad of mind boggling

I did, just yesterday. Had about 100L left. However, I’m not sure if these gauges are all calibrated the same. Cheers, Paul S/Y Ya Fohi - Amel 54 #98 - Grenada
