Thanks Bill, I will apply this quantity next. Regards Paul

I second Bill R. Just did the anti-fouling on my A54 and 20 L is a good estimate. You probablycan get by with 2 liters less. I used much more because I decided to apply 3 coats

Thanks very much for every one’s thoughts! Joerg Esorn

For a few weeks or possibly months, the outhaul furler has been slower than the main furler on my A55. Amel had me check the current limiter - it’s ok - and then had me check the current when

Dear Amelians, On the pic you see a beige plastic part that connects to the grey tube. It's dripping water. I'm trying to disassemble, turning, pulling, pushing...no success It stays where it is and

I recommend the Micron series, if available. GelSeal is not required on an Amel made after about 1985. In the mid 80s Amel began using a proprietary anti-osmosis layer between the gelcoat and the

How many litres per coat is required for a 54? I expect a 55 is not much or if any a larger surface area and I generally use 12 litres for 2 coats but maybe this is not correct? Regards Paul Fortuna

Many thanks to you all for the rapid response, advice and a clear consensus. I'll go with 2 coats of the 350. Great to back aboard an Amel again. About 15 years ago I bought a SM near Nice and took

Hi David; We applied 3 coats of micron 350 last year in Malta. The boat has been in the water since and the result is fine so far. We had used micron 66, when it was available , and it worked fine for

Hi David, For a 2 years in water you need my experiance 3 Layer Micron 350. You can see this also on the HP from International. Liebe Grüsse / Best regards Arnold SY Zephyr SM 203 Am 30.09.2019 um

Hi David Depending on what antifoul is on there already, you should find this out and check what you can use next or how to prepare Once the hull is prepared and you know the gel shield is good 2

Hi all, Just acquired an Amel 54 (#58) and having her hauled and anti-fouled. I am going to remain in the Mediterranean and some advice would be valued. The yard is offering International Unipro or

Thanks Vladimir and Craig..Does the motor simply pop off?? The worm drive doesnt get tangled?? If that is the case, I will do that asap rather than wait for the auto electrician.... -- Adam Body

Hi Joerg, We installed 500W worth of panels on our bimini - 5 x 100W. We did not have the budget (or eye) for a solar arch. I designed the system such that each panel has its own charge controller.

Thanks for the image and thought Joerg I think the only productive way over the wheel house is again as you’re plan, 1 panel on either side of the boom with separate controllers or both panels

very helpful, yes, thanks much Paul. I have 400W in the same space - that's an easy upgrade. I figure I can install at least 500W on the wheel house. Space available over the fixed portion up to

Thanks Mark. That's exactly what I needed. Mark F is good and has helped me in the past. I'll give him a call. Hope you are enjoying your time in the western carribean. We follow your web page with
