Thank you Craig! Elegant simplicity... Much exploring to do on this boat...

Hello Joey, That makes a lot of sense! I will give it a try next time I am on the boat. Thank you for your help! Charles

Hey Charles, Welcome to the "club". That scale is the main reason to buy an Amel! It shows the number of liters in your water tank - the cpvc pipe floats up and you read across from the top of

Hi Charles, I believe that is the way you measure the volume of water held in your tank. When you release the locking mechanism the staff/rod should rise up and indicate on the numeric bar how many

Hello Everyone, Can anyone help me to understand what the graduated scale in the attached picture is for? It is located in my Amel mango next to a cpvc pipe that telescopes in and out of a stainless

Hello Everyone, My name is Charles Bell. I just purchased an 82 Amel Mango who rub rails had a rough time during the last hurricane. I have attached some pictures... Can anyone point me to the

Hello Dean, and hive of cognoscenti. Please have a look at this video if you’d be so kind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H001nIFUTlw I started noticing your description several months ago. Pre

Thomas, That result aligns perfectly with what I was told. The blue box device will sense the voltage needed and deliver either 24 or 12VDC. Best, CW Bill Rouse Admiral, Texas Navy Commander

Hi Terry, JB Weld might be a good temporary fix, but I suspect you are correct regarding the tip of the iceberg. We have #72 SM, and finally replaced our stainless muffler a little over a year ago

Yes, I was concerned about that too, Terry, especially with the ss water tank where there were several pinholes in one area and seemingly expanding (where an old heating element had broken off inside

Hi Gang, I’ve been wondering for most of this summer about the wandering rpm in my D3-110-C motor. I’ve noticed that occasionally the rpm will wander around by 20-40rpm over a period of a second

Alin, Can you share the answer that you received here in this thread? That way if someone in the future searches for the answer on this forum they will be able to find it. Thanks, Mark McGovern SM

Thanks Craig, I have JB Weld on board! Wondering if 1 pin hole is the tip of the iceberg? Terry. SV Libby SM#196 Maple Bay, BC

A patch with J-B Weld could well last another 21 years. The one on my engine is at the 15 year mark and still perfect. The one on my hot water tank pin holes is at 8 years. Cheers, Craig SN68

That’s very curious. I’ve been wondering the same. Similar issues and replacement was with a 12v pump. 24v light is on. Been working fine and continually for 4 months now. Cold

Hi Bill, Kristy is1999 SM 2K #243. She has the pin on the stanchion and therefore the shorter poles. If a 1996 has the longer ones and 1999 has shorter ones, maybe the change happened with the 2K

I did a quick inspection of Libby's mechanical systems after our last trip. I noted that there was a small pool of salt underneath the stainless steel muffler box for the main engine. On closer

Thanks once again for the detailed description of the instal o Peregrinus! Libby was one of those SM's that did not have the forced air option much to my wife's dismay. Looks like Hydronic is our

Thank you Eric.

Thank you. I did and got an answer. Regards.
