Thanks Scott, Dominique and Dean. I appreciate the real world experience. I will look more into the VE.Direct circuits and logic within the Cerbo, Victron.BMS and Cryix-Li-ct, to see if those offer

On my Maramu 86, I have about 80-100 liters left of water and no water seems to be coming out of the automatic water pump but the manual one is still working. Is it possible the automatic water pump

Justin, We just recently did a lot of research on power generation since we were replacing our old Onan, and this system was in the mix of options we considered. We quickly dropped it off the list

Our previous boat had a Village Marine watermaker installed. It required a special sized membrane. Expensive. I replaced the membrane housing and membrane with a standard, buy anywhere size. Capacity

Bill , Is there a dealer here in the States that you would recommend that have fair prices? A bit chilly down there ,I hope you have electricity ,take care. Thanks, Pat SM Shenanigans

😀 Filmtech makes special-length membranes for some watermaker manufacturers. I assume that the reason some watermaker manufacturers would want a membrane that is slightly shorter or longer is so

Except, from what I have been taught by THE MASTER, you have a SPECTRA water maker. Then the length is slightly shorter and you are forced to buy from SPECTRA☹. Best Regards Teun SV AMELIT A54

Hi Grant, Last year I installed a second pilot Raymarine gyro evo with tiller in aft cabin. I use the old 6000 like a spare pilot. I have the cpu under the berth in the saloon in the starboard side.

John Harries over at Morgan’s Cloud did a pretty good analysis of the issues surrounding this concept. I don’t agree with everything John posts but he’s generally right and always puts a lot of

All - in our collective efforts to be more off-grid, and to simplify our already complex boats the Integral System (introduced to me by Matt Salatino) seems interesting / promising albeit expensive.

Hi Bill, I am interested in your on line service Amel Book, but it looks like the PayPal environment is only a sandbox/test environment. Is the service already available? Many thanks, Rink

Dominique: See https://amelyachtowners.groups.io/g/main/message/50689 I banged my head against the engine room firewall for over a year until I had a very smart non-marine engineer help me implement

Hi Doug, Seems you read what I wrote but it didn't provide the answers you needed? Probably the result of someone who studied economics trying to explain something way out of his pay grade. :) I'll

Dominique, I am considering a hybrid 24V system using lead acid and lithium, but without the Cyrix Li CT. I wonder if you could elaborate a little on the disadvantages you mention? many thanks Dean SY

Hello Doug, Good points above from the other members. I would not recommend the use of any alternator cut-off mechanism that is not based upon direct cell-level monitoring. You must ensure that the

Thanks, Peter. As expected, proof that the Ground Fault cause was seawater intrusion into the Calpeda Motor Stator as a result of a mechanical seal failure in the pump housing coupled with a missing

Here’s the conclusion Thanks all for your help and suggestions Saludos Peter La Querida SM 207 Barra de Navidad, Mexico

Hello Doug, I am in the process of installing lithium batteries on my 54. I followed the different interventions (especially the very detailed one by Scott) with a lot of interest. Like you I chose
