Jason, Depending on where the batteries are shipping, is the difference between getting a good deal and a great deal. I paid slightly less than $3500 for the two batteries including shipping. That

Victor The company is reliable. The name of the company is new but not the company itself which has been active on the market for decades (Russo Yachting). Mr Russo retired 1 or 2 years

Slavko, The previous (also the only previous) owner moved the starter battery into the engine room. I kind of think it's a good idea to have the engine start battery in the engine room, so I left it

Hello Victor, I had the same answer from Amel in Hyeres. Seanergie is the new name of a company named "Rousseau" before. They are well known round here and I think they did a lot of Amels. After some

Hello Elja. Sorry that I haven't been able to answer you before. Do you have plans to come to Corfú? The closing is quite heavy and I don't have a car to take it to the post office... Victor

Hello Joel As my boat is already 16yo (2005) I’m actively looking at re rigging it.I will certainly follow Bill’s advice to use ACMO but having had a look at your link on mechanical end fittings
