Hi All, I am taking the very unusual step of repeating my recent information. On SM 299 the steel hawse pipe and its upper flange are an integral part of securing the anchor winch through the bolt

Bill, I had a look at the manuals for the UP6/E and MASS+ and the associated PCS, and it is clear from the pictures of the PCS circuit board that the RJ11 (phone not ethernet) jack is sending digital

Hi Alan: I am surprised to hear of number of boats affected. It seems this is a common failure mode. I have not done mine. I only discovered the problem when I spent a couple of days inside both of

Gary, thank you for starting this thread. I am also getting ready to take on this project. I am interested to hear if anyone has actually done this yet and what the results have been. I do have to

Alessandro, All Santorins, Super Maramus, 54s, and 55s were delivered new from Amel with a plastic cap. They were all red, except possibly late model 54s and all 55s which were black. The Amel

Scott, I understand that you are saying when the MASS switch is moved to "+" (positive) the light turns ON. Correct? This means that there is a connection between 24VDC Positive and Bonding. When

Scott, Salt water is almost certainly the cause for a short circuit between the pumps electrical supply and the case and hence the bonding system. The other, less likely, possibility is accumulation

OF COURSE !!!! DUH !!!! WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT!!!!! Great quiz, Olivier, with the most obvious answer that none of us came up with! Cheers, Craig Briggs, SN68 Sangaris

Hi everybody, the two master pieces made of PVC tube glassed to the hull and deck are the cockpit drains. These pipes are in fact glassed with GRP on their whole outside surface, and then glassed with

Hi all, I've been using the Marco UP6/E pump for domestic water for almost 6 months now. I've been quite happy with it. I regularly check the Mass- and Mass+ switch on my A54 to ensure no electrical
