Hi A mooring ball is rated in terms of holding power but I don’t understand what that means. I also don’t know what holding power is required to hold a Super Maramu in a hurricane. Could someone

Hi , Did you ever try Duralac? I have built 2 boats using this stuff. It is amazing and I believe it is better than Tef Gel. In addition it is a cream and when it dries it is somewhat like

Hi All, My boat-local West Marine ran out of Tef-Gel so I went online to order some and found a supplier that is much less costly than WestMarine...well that isn't saying anything novel is it? It

Hi Dan, in Europe you only get diesel with organic additives everywhere. In addition, the EU has passed a law on the use of effective additives for environmental reasons. Only professional users have

Thanks Arnold, it would be helpful to know if you were refueling with bio-diesel? And if you were in a hot tropical location? I have the dilema of being in Cartagena where they sell bio-diesel. I

You haven't seen any email SPAM until this morning. I apologize for that. I made a mistake and accidentally approved the SPAM email. I deleted it a few minutes ago. Best, CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners

Hello Mark I have bought this foam rubber, cut it to the length needed, clued the ends together with superglue and fixed it in the window groove with contact adhesive. For the different portlights I

Good morning, can anyone share their experience of buying and fitting seals for the opening portlights, the photographs are from a 1983 Sharki. If Maud is the answer how is she contacted? Thank

Hi Olivier, I am quite certain that I have the aluminum casing - so that would mean I have the RH version. What does RH standing for....probably "right...."? Would you know the pitch of the thread?

Hi Volker, Originally, this Santorin has an aluminum casing C-drive, labelled CATEP, with a RH pitch propeller. Since 1990, the drive may have been replaced with a cast iron casing one, and if so, the

Hi I just want to get to the heart of this long discussion. I have 30 years of positive experience with a full tank and an additive for diesel. There was never water in the tank and organic pollution.

There is a third reason to keep the tank reasonably full. As the tank gets closer to empty the sloshing of the remaining fuel at lower levels will begin to stir up that sludge cocktail at the bottom

Woody, You adjust the engine mounts with the tool against the transmission output flange. Once the tool is centered on the flange you then continue to adjust the mounts until there is a plus or

Hi Bernd, When I purchased SM37 in 2016 the previous owner stressed to me to always keep the tank full and to always use the Baja filter. He said in the 16 years he had her no one drop of fuel

Bernd, the SN tank (I assume that SN119 is exact the same as SN120) has about 5l fuel (or a cocktail of fuel and water...) at the bottom of the tank that will stay there if you run it empty. I know

Pietro and Bernd, The small gear is held in place with a bolt and a key. And yes, Loctite should be used on the bolt.

Hi Bernd, I bet 5 cent that the upper gear attached to the vertical axe became loose because it’s not easy to tight the bolt, that happens to us, so I retighten the bolt applying Loctite and I

Basically, we are in vehement agreement. A buck converter is normally a component in an MPPT controller. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

"Higher operating voltage panels are better" is an overgeneralization. You need to factor in the desired performance, costs of the other parts of the system, topology of your charge controllers, and

Matt, sure thats a policy discussion. it would be very interesting how high above the bottom of the tank the fuel is taken out of the tank and how many liters are unusable fuel. Will be a job for my
