Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Micron 66 Caribbean experience
Thanks for sharing the experiences. I think that I will get a couple gallons, light sand and focus on the waterline, bow and rudder.
My plans are to haul again next hurricane season and then apply

Re: Watermaker and transmission fluid
Hi Gary,
Yes, the reply Alan got from Dessaltator sounds very much like the reply I got from Alden Barbour that you can only use sea water to cool your refrig. At least they were straightforward

Re: Watermaker and transmission fluid
I find that reply from Dessalator quite intriguing. I cannot speak to that statement exactly, because my watermaker was 'hybridized' some time ago and is not purely Dessalator any more but here is

Engine fuel filters
Thanks to Ian Jenkins, I had Amel install a third fuel filter on Kimberlite when it was built.
When fuel goes into the tank , it is first pumped through a huge racor filter similar to that which you

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Watermaker and transmission fluid
We don't have any of that stuff either...we have the dummies version. Our manual is extremely simple.
It would be very interesting to see.
I emailed Dessalator to ask them about this fresh water

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Micron 66 Caribbean experience
Dan & Lori,
We use a similar ablative paint, and put on two coats every haul out. In the Caribbean 24 months is pushing it, but it you clean regularly it works. With ablative paints be sure to clean

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Micron 66 Caribbean experience
I certainly hope Micron 66 is OK as we have 7 gallons onboard for our upcoming haulout. Boat has 2 year old ablative already. My intention is like Mark to have a light sanding then two coats of 66.
