Hi Mark, those are somewhat smaller, the hole in the panel is 8mm and yes, these are in the breaker panel. Kind

Is this what you are looking for? This fits into the Amel DCbreaker panal. https://www.bluesea.com/products/8172/LED_-_12_24V_DC_Green With bestregards, Mark Skipper Sailing

I have a 24 VDC pilot light failed and I am trying to locate where I can get the same to replace the existing one without changing the exiting type. Any ideas on the type and brand, thank you. Barry &

Hi Kent & Iris, and the Amel community in general, Sorry I cannot comment on the shelf life of the packing material but I do have a question regarding the packing nut and stuffing box. A small leak

Bill, speaking as one of those who really, really, wants to own an Amel but doesn’t yet have one, I find those “maintenance issues” posts fascinating and one key way to learn more about the

I already isolated the water heat exchanger. Still same. getting the salt water result I checked the freeze point of the coolant versus the sea water. What was in the heat exchanger had the same

My wife and I are thoroughly enjoying our new Amel 50. Personally, I really appreciate the thought (Amel philosophy) that went in to designing our boat. As with anything man-made, our boat requires

James, You do not search for Kerpa photos. In the past some members named photos or albums names that had nothing to do with the photos. Two of our members accomplished the enormous task of renaming

Good point! A fun Amel pick-me-up for those on here considering an Amel.... met a very cool old French sailor last week, been around the world more than once, pulled up at the dock in a stunning

We replaced our bosch with the Beko. Outstanding machine and quite easy to replace. it works much better than our house washing machine. The hardest part is getting the machine to the boat!-if in the

Asking me? Yes we did. Doesn’t regrett it at all. Keeps the cockpit a bit cooler (and warmer in cold climate) as it is a sandwich construction. Perfect spot for solar panels. Not really satisfied

Hi My wife complained that I was developing a stoop standing at the helm trying to see around in our SM. Then I saw what Ian and Judy did in their SM 2000 Pen Azen, which had a single large vinyl

Hi Eric The contactor is an automatic switch that selects either the power from the shore or the generator. The manual switch does the same job, just manually. I bought a Schneider Electric rotary

That seems reasonable, Eric. It does seem a long shot and one I certainly haven't encountered. So if there is a leak in the water heater heat exchanger I guess it could force fresh water into the

Hi again Bernd, if your heat exchanger has rubber end caps it is high level probability that there is the problem. Tighten the hose clamps as a first try. I had that once on a previous boat and

On second thought. If the engine is running and a faucet is running, just before the fresh water pump goes on, Isn’t it possible to get antifreeze in the hot water tank? Fair

Craig, That is an excellent idea. I wish I had thought of that. Eric

Then that has to be the problem. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite Amel Super Maramu #376
