Re: Amel's suggestion to run the Volvo D3-110 (A54) daily while on passage
Hi Alex,
My understanding of the anti-siphon on the raw water line (between the exit from heat exchanger and input to exhaust elbow), is to prevent continuous water flow (after engine shutdown)

I'm not sure I fully understand this quote from Oliviers post:
" Last point, the anti-siphon system cannot prevent water from getting into the exhaust line. It is designed in order no water can be

Re: Grounding for solar panels / solar arch
Patrick, zincs that are eroding is a good thing. That means they are providing protection as they are supposed to erode. It's when corrosion/erosion shows up elsewhere (for example, a pump impeller)

Re: Super Maramu Main Mast Furling foil Sheered
I had not seen the photos ,I now see that the sail groove would keep a sleeve from rotating within the foil,I still think I will mill it from solid stock and mill it to fit around the luff

Re: Grounding for solar panels / solar arch
I have wondered ,should the electric motor on toilets be bonded? They have contact with the sea ,don't know if any metal parts are in contact though,like the impeller shaft. My zincs are eroding ,so

Re: Super Maramu Main Mast Furling foil Sheered
It would seem to me that a bushing or sleeve slid up inside the foil would need to held in a fixed position relative to the foil ,otherwise it would be free to rotate within the foil and not take

Re: Super Maramu Main Mast Furling foil Sheered
One thing that could affect the wear rate of the extrusion attachment hole is the bolt itself. Check to be sure that there are no threads in contact with the surfaces that bear the torque stresses.

I have a similar problem.. the passerelle tubes slowly ground through on a concrete dock without us realising when wintering in Spain. I've temporarily glassed them up but could do with getting some

Re: Mobile communications - 4G, WiFi
I have found in the Med, Canary Islands and the Azores that 4G works very well and fast. My UK phone package makes it very inexpensive within the EU. So the phone can be used as a hotspot.

Re: Grounding for solar panels / solar arch
Mike,
The deal is any metal that is in constant contact with saltwater needs to be connected to the bonding system.
If you have attachments, as you say, on your non metal muffler, they will not need

Re: Mobile communications - 4G, WiFi
It’s definitely worth trying first before shelling out loads of money and running wires everywhere. Things are only getting better and cheaper with mobile networks too. We anchor 90% of the time

Re: Grounding for solar panels / solar arch
Yikes, ok. Thanks Alan. I'll need to remedy this.
Do the metal parts in the exhaust systems qualify for bonding as well then? The muffler on my main engine is metal and the fittings on the generator's

Re: Super Maramu Main Mast Furling foil Sheered
If there is noticeable play back and forth between the main foil and the bolt, is there anything one can do to slow down or minimize the metal-on-metal wear and tear? Perhaps a bushing or sleeve on

Re: Super Maramu Main Mast Furling foil Sheered
Thanks everyone for the quick replies. I've owned Sula for 15 years now and pretty sure this repair wasn't done by the previous owner, so looks like it should be reasonably straight forward. Ten years
