Re: Dyneema loop
Hi Wolfgang;
We just ordered about 7 of the loops from Amel.
Great quality dyneema with cover and perfect fit. I think it’s a good idea to help Amel when we can also. Happy with the purchase and

Re: Storm tactics
Hi Kent,
I agree with you. Done the same myself, both the reduction in sail as a windy thunderstorm approaches and the heaving to, although not for 48 hours. However 8 to 12 ft seas is one thing,

Hi Tom and All:
A few notes on desalination of seawater and my experience with my Dessalator 160 l/hr over the last 18 years of use:
For the following reason I measure EC (electrical conductivity)

Re: Water maker Questions
Hi Tom,
Great meeting you last week. I believe we have the same watermaker you do (Iteration is hull 233). We see almost exactly the same production rate that you do. I believe we see similar TDS

Mike,
One thing that might be helpful is to know that if the wind is too strong to motor directly upwind that you can still make progress to windward without stressing your engine. You can do

We got caught in a slow moving front last spring with 35-40kts with gusts over 45 from the N (where we wanted to go). We didn’t want to run S with the storm and lose a lot of ground, and

Re: Autoprop H6 Tools
Gary (s/v Liahona),
Thank you for the advice, I'll take a good look at the lip seal issue you brought up. Their parts list for the H6 has an "Ecopur Seal", which I take to be the lip seal.

Re: Dessslator HP hoses
Alan,
You can go to any hydraulic shop—they can make you up the hoses for you.
They are usually rated at 4000 psi and have swaged on fittings. Probably for 50-60 dollars.
If I remember correctly
