Re: Carrying Tender on Davits while crossing
Here are some responses to Mohammad's questions:
1. I have a Honda 20HP outboard, which is quite heavy (but the same weight as the 15HP). The boat behaves well with it - no issues.
2. I can plane

Re: Size of main anchor for Super Maramu
Hi Victor,
We have had galvanised chain attached to a stainless anchor for the last 20 years. No signs of corrosion.

Re: Are Amel boats quiet?
Mine is very quiet no squiky sounds even during very uncomfortable passages. only a small sound from the wind screen/doghouse but that is a very minor issue. My friends sailing with us always comment

Yes they are quiet....almost totally
We had an annoying squeak last year in big seas, it was traced to one of the bolts holding down the hard dodger. Tightened it and the others, squeak gone.

Re: Size of main anchor for Super Maramu
Hi Steve,
In my opinion a 47kg Mantus is overkill. Remember that the system is as strong as its weakest link. Pay particular attention to swivels and other connectors.
I would suggest looking for

Re: Recommended solar panel brand
Scott,
Why do you use parallel - Is it to do with partial shading? Mine are in series to minimise loss in the cable as I have no space for thicker cables.

Mine has squeaks and creeks... it’s a boat!

Are Amel boats quiet?
Hi, could you please let me know if Amel boats, SM specifically, are quiet boats? I’ve chartered Lagoon catamaran last week and it was a noise generating machine at anchorage and during passages.

Scott,
Thanks for that. Yes, I should have guessed the wires for the gauge! A for the possible slope I guess I could put a spirit level on and see what it averages out at.
