I believe that all Yanmars installed in Amels originally had a water sensor in the fuel filter assembly. This sensor does two things. It eventually cuts off the supply of fuel to the injection pump

Greetings, It is with mixed feelings that my wife and I have decided to sell la Querida, Super Maramu hull # 207 (year built 1998), currently in the Marina at Barra de Navidad, Mexico. I have posted

I've been running my boat in the marina this winter with the diesel heater running. It was down at a quarter in late Dec so I filled it with 103 gallons. I had fuel coming up the fill pipe in to the

I was the previous owner of Randall’s boat. Based on previous experience of short handed ocean sailing and being new to Amel with the 54, I thought I needed a wind and water powered self steering

I have Mastervolt BM on my SM that is not working well as it is shoving only positive values of current and very fluctuating (changing value all the time), remaining time is not shown, Ah are

HI Steven, It the control panel for the Active Echo radar reflector. When switched on it enhances the boats response to a radar signal reflecting back a stronger response. When the buzzer

Hi, does anyone know what this unit is for?

Eric, I have never had water in my fuel filter, perhaps as a result of my fuel polishing system, and would like to eliminate the wiring and sensor. Don't I need a different setup

The bolt is for the C-Drive oil drain. It was likely replaced with the V Bolt for the Spurs Line Cutter.

Thanks to all of you for your input, affirming our decision not to add a windvane (though I would like to fuss with it ...). At present we have a spare linear drive in a locker and an installed chain

Agree fully with Bill. I took my hydrovane off and sold it. I would have loved it on my previous boat (Jeanneau 37). I'm not the best sail trimmer and if the boat went off course it meant releasing

I love windvanes. They are awesome pieces of mechanical kit. I have spent many hours on a long ocean passage just watching one, which can be endlessly fascinating to an engineering nerd like me.

If you have a 4jh Yanmar engine and your instrument panel does not have a light to indicate you have water in the filter you can eliminate the expensive filter, wiring, and sensor. The only purpose

JB, I am a subscriber; virtually never go there. Just checked and it appeared unchanged from last time I logged in. Best Regards Teun SV AMELIT A54 #128 In Storage on the hard in

Hey Martin, I believe when the solar panels and wind generators went on, the run your autopilot full time was less of an energy issue. But with the newer tender davit, the hydrovane just had to go. My

Hi, Thank You so much. Nice Idea. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite Amel Super Maramu #376

Thank You Bill.

Yes, the bolt for using with line cutter has a V-cut at the head of the bolt. So this was perhaps before adding the line-cutter Wolfgang Weber SY Elise Amel 54#162

No, the plug cannot be used for that in any way. It's just a bolt-type plug with an o-ring to create the seal. Ian & Margaret S/V Loca Lola II SM153

Thanks for that. That plug is as alternative when you do not have the line cutter installed I presume? Regards, Arno
