Re: Storm tactics
Peter,
I've been doing more research on this...again. I used to own a 27' off-shore center console power cat with a ParaTech sea Anchor. That's very different from say an Amel Santorin. I'm currently

Re: Antal Block and Dyneema loops
We’ve been into Cape May, twice.
Once, in the anchorage, and once fueling at Utah’s Marina.
It is shallow, but manageable.
Radio the marina for directions in deep water. When fueling, we diverted

Re: Antal Block and Dyneema loops
Wolfgang,We just made that passage , I don't think there is enough water to get into the Cape May harbor and the Bay inlet is restricted by a fixed bridge. In settled weather you can anchor just about

Re: Antal Block and Dyneema loops
Hi Wolfgang;
We replaced the loops by removing the screw you mentioned and took the roller out. You will not lose any ball bearings. It did take some work to get the roller out due to salt and dust.

Re: Did you catch 4 errors on the Delos series 205?
Could you specify the four errors you identified on the Delos video for anyone that is still just marginally Amel challenged? Thanks.

Re: Wintering in potentially freezing conditions, watermaker?
Dean,
I've winterized my SM for the last two years. For the watermaker I did as Mark from Balcen (Dessalator USA distributor) suggested and used marine/rv anti-freeze and it seems to have worked fine

Re: Wintering in potentially freezing conditions, watermaker?
Mark from Dessalator in the US recommends the pink anti-freeze (propylene glycol) alone as an alternative to metabisulfite. So, in cold weather you have both bases covered.
If you did use

Hello all,
What are your thoughts on using a para-anchor or storm rated sea anchor type setup?

Wintering in potentially freezing conditions, watermaker?
Hi folks,
We will be wintering ashore this year at Ardrossan, Scotland where there is a possibility of subzero temperatures and I intend to take measures to combat possible damage due to freezing.

Re: Amel is going lithium
Thanks Scott;
We do use LIPO, LI-ION and LiFEpo4 in our hobby and am familiar with the safety vs. energy storage, weight, # of cycles differences. I agree that that LiFepo4 would be the safest

Re: Amel is going lithium
Mohammad,
Both Victron, which I have and Mastervolt use lifepo4 chemistry, a much safer (but less energy dense) technology than the lithium ion that is more common. I don't know much about RC planes,
