Before I buy anything I want to be sure I understand the connection issues. If I buy a Grohe faucet in the US I can install it on my boat without an adapter if I use the supply lines already in my

Hi Paul and Ellen. I like Pauls set up in that it is totally adjustable from the cockpit, perfect. I can add a level of simplicity. You do not need to remove the endless Amel outhaul line. Just remove

Hajo, If the depth sounder transducer is original, it is old enough to need replacing because it is beyond its average life. I have seen these act up, before eventually failing completely. Send me an

Will, I don't remember all the details but some years ago we met another Santorin owner in the Med who had extended the aft berth with a "foot-well" into the aft locker area. I recall he was a

The owners of Cayenne, Hannes and Sabine (from Austria) are both tall and I don't ever remember hearing them complain about the aft cabin headroom. Their boat is now in Australia and they are home in

Hello Hajo: My SM #335 has the depth sounder wired to the B & G Hydra 2000 computer at the nav station with orange/white wire going to terminal 30 and orange/green wire going to terminal 29. These

Hi Amelians, I have a problem with the Depth Sounder, sometimes it works, sometimes it = doesn't. So it is not really broken. I had cleaned the surface, but it is s= till the same. Any ideas ? Thanks

Hey Ian, Thanks for the heads up about the aft berth. At 6'1" it may be a little tight, but I can't imagine ruling out the boat over that unless it totally egregious and I have to sleep in the fetal

Sometimes I really wish this forum had a way of indicating a huge thumbs up for a particular post! What a great little nugget of information on the differences between models. I have been trying to

Below is the list of Amel owners that asked me to order the special seals, please let me know if I missed anyone. Although some of you have already sent me the info via different means, I need to

Will, I think you will find that every Santorin owner on the owners site will say it is the right boat for them. For us it’s been perfect. One question though is what height are you? At 5’10”

Hi Amelians, I have a problem with the Depth Sounder, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. So it is not really broken. I had cleaned the surface, but it is still the same. Any ideas ? Thanks

Hi Jean-Pierre, I'm tracking the 8 you found on Yachtworld. The concentration of them in the Med is a big part of the impetus for why I want to view one in the US. We are open to the possibility of

I will be doing something similar with rope, that looks great! I have a different question about my composite wheel (SM 243 ‘98-‘99). The spokes have cracks in the composite between the sides and

Ellen! there is a rather easy way to set up a convenient back up system, i have been forced to do that two times. Mount a block at the connection where the boom and mast meets. Take a line to the

Would it be just as easy to replace the motor? I’m sure Amel doesn’t wind their own motors, and someone knows the source? ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Hi, We have had a number of issues with out mainsail outhaul motor and so we have had to macgyver a manual system more than once. We hope to fix/replace the motor but I'd like a more permanent

We have a Swetec hydrogenerator. Would not buy one again, very limited use. Only use it when sailing long distance about 300 nm or more. In Caribbean one has to continously clear it from see weed.

Hello William, First step is to look at Yachtworld.com and find the listed Santorins. I found 8… all in the Med. One of them caught my eye, the one listed with Michel Charpentier; he is almost

Will, It looks as if that Santorin in Martinique is actually sold. -- Mark McGovern SM #440 Cara Deale, MD USA
