Theo, The way it was previously (might have changed): Volvo ships the engine to Volvo France where Amel-specific modifications are made. Then Volvo France ships it to Amel. Have fun with your 50. I

Bill, My engine is D3-110I-H. The picture I posted is of my engine while it was still on the crate. I am guessing that is the way it came from the Volvo factory. Theo s/v Paloma, Amel 50 #18

Steve, I made a typo...see the revised: I refer to those as swivel stay bushings, but I am not sure if that is the correct term. During reassembly, those two plastic pieces are to be inserted around

Joerg, Are you tall enough to bang the Mizzen Boom? Best, Bill Rouse 720 Winnie St. Galveston, Texas 77550 832-380-4970 My Calendar Yacht School

In many cases, with high pressure from the dock, overflow will come out of the manual float gauge tube in SMs and 54s. By alarm, I meant that I set a timer to remind me to check. Once I did this, I

Not true. I’m just tall enough to bang into the mizzen sheet - usually with speed. Still looking to buy your ingenious gas valve ....

What is the hull number or complete HIN of this Amel? Do you have its location and name? This damage looks familiar, but I cannot place the particular SM. First, I would ask the owner for a complete

Lindy, i thought I had responded before but don’t see my reply here. So send me an email and I’d be happy to talk with you. Best. Joerg A55 Kincsem, currently in Cagliari Sardinia

Genoa Furling Solenoids on SN & SM are located on the opposite side of the breakers in the photo below. Note the black "thumb bolt" in the above photo. If you remove this thumb nut, the entire

a) My Amel Sharki #60 does not have a Dessalator. b) I only close the level pipe as shown in the photos when refilling the water tank. The other times I see the water level by the unblocked level

I think Gehard made a very clever solution. Simple and elegant. On the 54 there is actually an overflow pipe as far as I can see. It drains the excess into the slot where the sliding hatch goes. This

It took a hit. Needs to be delaminated a little to see how far the trouble is and decide how far to go to repair. Maybe just a localized area. Needs a expert to check out the whole keel attachment.

Hello to All, I found Amel SM (1997) that I like to purchase. I had first look yesterday and what is working me mostly is a crack on the keel, front edge with some rust coming out (see pictures). Is

Hi Arno, I’m 99% sure, I will dig out the manual and post a pic when we are in port later today. Best regards Dean

Hi Joerg, You did not mention that you can walk under your Mizzen and not hit your head.😅😅 Best Regards Barry AMEL 54 #17

Unlike many others we have never done this in our Super Maramu. This is because we are always so alert and thinking. So we have never, ever made such a stupid, foolish mistake in KAIMI. Oh, wait,

Davi, I appreciate the white flag but given what you have written, I still feel the need to correct some of the misstatements in your posts. For the record, I have spent 4 hours with Joel potter

Gerhard, I also thought about doing that but then a) what happens when the tank is full and you’re using the Dessalator so the filler is also closed, where does the water go? And b) how do you

HELP. Where do these go?! I'm sure they go in the Jib furler, but I missed putting them in! I was sure that I would not miss how they went back in, but sure as s&%# I did! The furler is now back
