Re: AMEL 54 watertank compartments - access to clean
Dear Oliver,
thx.
That seems to be a good idea too.
Maybe I prefer this when I have to struggle with the freezer (locker) more then 2 or 3 hours.
This will be my work for the weekend :-).

Hi Ruedi
I disconnected the hose from the galley panel, attached a strong mousing line and pulled it out through the engine bay and took both hoses to be copied. It was easy to pull the new hose

Re: Dessalator HP Hoses
Tony,
I agree with Mohammed. The hoses could break at anytime. The saltwater, a broken high pressure hose will spray throughout the engine room, will cost thousands of euro.

Re: AMEL 54 watertank compartments - access to clean
We cleaned the water tank on our 54 shortly after purchase. We know Amel did not build all boats the same but I cannot believe they would make a significant change such as going from one to three

Re: SAILING TO FLORIDA FROM VENEZUELA
Also if you get a chance to spend a few days in biscayne bay, its a really pretty place to hang out and sail, and plenty of good anchoring spots there. If you come into the bay take the stiltsville

24v alternator belts
I have a 175A 24v alternator on my 54. With twin pulley v belts.
It is the set up with the alternator to port and separate from the 12v alternator and raw water pump belt. I know some 54’s are set
