Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] D3-110I-C Wandering RPM
Hi Danny.
Thank you very much for your insightful thoughts they are really appreciated.
Since I never really completely trust my hull speed indicator as it seems to wander a bit I rely on SOG:

Re: FW: [Amel Yacht Owners] Frigoboat AV35F (complete)
Hi Mark,
I was wondering why you bought the flat plate evaporator 200F from Frigoboat in stead of the 380F.
The info from the German distributer of Frigoboat is telling that the 200F is for freezing

Autoprop Puller
I borrowed a tool from the boatyard to pull the prop and it worked great. I'm not sure if this is the right size or not but it's only $35.20!

Re: Yanmar Diesel Lift Pump
Bill is correct, I was referring to the priming pump. I was mistaken in calling it the "low pressure lift/priming pump".
I'm not sure from my notes now if Mac Boring was referring to the priming

Re: Expected RPM at WOT
Porter,
Our WOT with the original Amel FIXED prop was just under 3000rpm when we sea-trialled the boat with Olivier last August.
I agree with Bill’s logic, I think you need to lean on Volvo to

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Onan Water Pump
Clean the inside pump walls well when changing the impeller...use sand paper.and make sure the inside wall is smooth. Also, change the impeller every 200-225 hours...you will not lose a blade unless

I sent Maud pictures of ours and she sent back pictures of what she had and none of them were like ours.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Onan Water Pump
Ok,
So Onan’s spec C (and later) uses the 132-0459 pump (G702 in Sherwood’s taxonomy). It can be found for less than 300$.
Based on the diagrams, the impeller for the newer pump is much bigger. I

Re: Prop Shaft Brake Pads
Maud has replacement pads. That's the easiest solution to worn pads. If you need them quickly, many "old-time" brake shops resurface the pads. We had ours fixed in Tangir-20Euro's. We estimated

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Expected RPM at WOT
Porter,
If you can easily spin the prop in neutral with the shaft brake OFF, the C-drive isn't adding friction.
I think that you have two remaining possibilities:

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Expected RPM at WOT
Porter,
Yes pull the prop and run it in gear. If it gets to 3100 rpm or near then it is not the c drive. You need a three legged prop puller or some other contraption, but it is something you can do
