Re: Important Update Re: No steering parts, rack & pinion, cables, from Amel
All SN, SM & 54 owners:
If you recall, one owner attempted to order steering rack and/or cable parts from Amel and was told the parts were no longer available. As soon as I read this, I got in touch

Keel bolt cover
There is a keel bolt near the C drive that is covered in a thick black rubber sealant. The sealant does not appear to be silicone based. I have a tear in that black rubber cover, revealing the head

Re: Down wind pole corrosion damage
Hi Thomas,
Good catch! I noticed Annie's short poles collect water inside. I have toyed with the idea of drilling a small drain hole to let it drain. Letting them stand upright in the sun

Re: Yanmar 4jh3-hte overheat
Hi Duane,

Re: Deck Repairs to Amel Mango
Hello Ian,
We are resurfacing the decks of Mango #29 right now.
We sanded off the loose "molded-teak" and have sealed with a 2-part high-build sealant. Then we will top with some sort of a surface

Re: Wave slap / banging under the stern
When Kelly and I first got out SM, we were bothered by this sound, too. I think I even noted it during the sea trial. I remember it keeping us up the first night we stayed on the boat. But shortly

Re: Lens-shaped bolt nuts
These are used in a few places on our Super Maramu, most notably on the cockpit table. Amel replaced one for us in Martinique and I'm pretty sure they just called it a "special nut". Google

Re: Yanmar 4jh3-hte overheat
Duane,
Generally, temp sensors work off of resistance with high resistance when cold and much lower resistance as the medium gets hotter. You can use a cup of room temperature water and boiling water

Re: Yanmar 4jh3-hte overheat
Bill,
I'll check the transmission cooler, good advice. That wasn't the primary cause though, as I noted, the engine seawater pump had shed all of its vanes.

Re: Yanmar 4jh3-hte overheat
Check the sea chest side of the transmission oil cooler. This should be cleaned every 2 years. Small pieces of debris that get past the sea chest strainer will block water from flowing through this
