Mohammad, The brushes may be wearing or something a bit seized. I found that giving it a firm knock as soon as you switch it on gets it going. In my case it was brushes. Paul Dowd Ya Fohi- Amel54

Mohammad and Aty, My first guess would be the impeller has seized. With best regards, Mark Skipper Sailing Vessel - Cream Puff - SM2K - #275 Currently cruising - Panama www.creampuff.us

We arrived on Kokomo today after wintering her for 6 months in Greece. When I turn on the fresh water breaker, the pump does not start and the breaker trips after about 2-3 seconds.. The pump was

Hi Arno and Dimitris, Thanks, I have it working now with the pump and noticed the overflow problem immediately. I was lucky and didn’t get any smells at all when I changed over, maybe because the

Hi Dean; It is my understanding that this is a backup emergency system only and not an option to fresh water. You really don’t want to use saltwater, unless fresh water is not available for some

Dean, I had the same problem and I installed in the saltwater line a cane so I can close the saltwater flow safely and clean the electrovalve which does close tight due to salt remains. It is bad

Hi Arno I’m very interested in your project with a changed cockpit table. I have the Lagun as well, it’s ok for 2 but not if you have guests on board. I had some thought how to change the original

Dean, I do not know your boat exactly but I have installed a cane from the saltwater supply to electro and that is behind the toilet in order to be able to remove the electrovalve for cleaning and

Hi, you also need to switch on the anchor flushing pump from the helm. Take care that the toilet does not overflow. Also be prepared for some horrible smell in the beginning. Cheers, Arno

Bill, They had to change the mast when they changed from a horizontal to a vertical furling-motor setup. The needed to make the slot bigger to fit the motor. My mast also has the reinforcing shell

Arno, no not a drain, rather a tang with a hole. It probably disappeared also when Amel reengineered the 54 mast so that it could take to expected loads. Best, CW Bill Rouse Yacht School - Supporting

This is Amelia’s set up while running free and also the eye at the base of the mast. I find I do not need the kicker whilst the main is sheeted in. AML 055-019 sailing in the Western Med Nick

Hi Bil, If you are referring to the hole that sits at the very base of the mast, that hole is the drain hole for water that gets into the mast. I wonder if it is able to take the loads of a kicker. I
