Re: Beam IV : A55 ; Bonaire , [AmelYachtOwners] A55: fresh water pump system
The air pressure to the accumulator tank should be about 10-15% less than the pump cutoff pressure as noted on the pressure gauge of the water pump.

Re: A55: fresh water pump system
Yes, the lack of flow is caused by a lack of sufficient pressure. In my experience, the lack of pressure can be caused by:
An open tap
A break in the freshwater circuit
A defective solenoid rinse

Re: A55: fresh water pump system
Stuart, I would try the following if the pump runs continuously. The cause is likely a lack of pressure in the Accumulator tank. At the tank, there is a blue cover which you can remove and where you

Re: A55: fresh water pump system
Stuart,
There could be several possible issues, but I suspect that if you are not losing water and only losing water pressure, there is a problem with the one-way valve on the freshwater pump. This

Re: Bonding and grounding on Maramu
The SSB radio transmitter ground is different from the antenna tuner ground. They should not be in common.

Our ground for the SSB is connected to the tuner that is located as far aft on the starboard side of the boat as you can go. I think we have had some modifications to our boat in this area but ours

Scott, a lot of great comments and thanks for being so detailed. That really helps us all out here in Amel land - learn from other's mistakes (er. success I mean)?
My approach is to do the breaker

Re: Bonding and grounding on Maramu
Hi Miles,
If your boat is like ours, which I assume it is......
On the skeg is a sintered bronze plate which is the ground for the SSB radio.
The wire from that should end up in the nav station area

Hmmm confused still.
Which bit in the photos is the ssb grounding plate connection?
I have 0 ohms when I test between the copper strap In the transom locker and the rudder
