Hi all, I'm replacing my dodger windows. I've had the acrylic fabricated, I've painted the edges, I've filled and drilled the screw holes... The only thing I'm missing is the sealant. I had intended

Interesting. This Amel-made bonding system check device is simple and masterfully accurate. The type of thing the you expect from Amel...very Amelish. I wonder if what you describe could be caused by

Hi everyone, Our DC leakage detector is showing a leak on the negative. I investigated any AC charger + DC USB potential issue as mentioned previously on the group and didn't find any culprit.

Not on the boat right now. but does anyone know the size of the ball bearing size of the Antal boom car/traveler. I need to replace mine.

Bill, I take it from what you wrote, that a halyard with an eye spliced in can pass up the mast and over the forward sheave ,in which case I will have an eye put in on both ends of the new

Ian, That is a good point about adding enough length to hoist a dinghy, and it sounds like an eye in both ends would be good for the shackle. I wonder now if an eye in a 7/16 " halyard would fit

Hello Bill R., Jeff, Eric, Bill K., A mechanic came by. Without my prompting, he did the test of loosening the fuel lines to each cylinder one by one. With each one, the engine roughened up, then

Pat I have a captive shackle on both ends. That’s how it was when I got the boat, although I have seen it in the recent pass that you only need the shackle on on end. The shackle retaining pin

Pat, Mine has a loop sliced on one end, and a key shackle spliced on the on the other. The sliced loop is a bit too large to fit over the "hook" on the mouse so it has a secondary loop of small

The previous owner apparently did not use the ballooner much and I have not either. I would like to replace the halyard for the ballooner and was wondering if I should have a eye spliced in one end ?

Very good point, Jeff. Best, CW Bill Rouse Admiral, Texas Navy Commander Emeritus Amel School www.amelschool.com 720 Winnie St Galveston Island, TX 77550 +1(832) 380-4970

I'll second Jeffrey's suggestion. It's an inexpensive check to remove the transmission oil cooler, take it to a radiator shop and have it cleaned and pressure tested. It's a maintenance item that

I had a similar problem when I first received Kimberlite in 2002. For whatever reason Yanmar USA, tracked the problem down to a defective turbo. I have no further problems since they swapped out

Bill and Fernando, And, low compression could be caused by valves out of adjustment. Assuming the AutoProp is clean and properly working, I would adjust the valves, then perform a compression test. If

Actually, ANY reason for low compression in one or more cylinders could be a possible cause of unburned fuel exiting with the exhaust...

Or, maybe your cylinder head valves need adjusting. Best, CW Bill Rouse Admiral, Texas Navy Commander Emeritus Amel School http://www.amelschool.com 720 Winnie St Galveston Island, TX 77550 +1(832)

Thank you Ian and Bill. The injector nozzles on all 4 cylinders were replaced with new 125 hours ago, as were the racor filters and the fuel filter. Today the racor filters and their "bubble" look
