Hi to all, i m planning to start from St Martin to Azores next May. Do you know how the update situation at St Martin ( Marina Fort St.Louis) & Sint Maarten Marinas and anchorages ? Many

Hi All, Dishwasher worked now it doesn't. There is power at the 24v outlet. No lights on, no activity. Any suggestions before I embark on pulling out and if I do where to from there. All manuals for

Hi Eric, While you're totally correct as far as you go, you're speaking only of the legacy style generators like you and I have, where, obviously, it's 1500/1800 or 3000/3600 rpm. However,

Hi Mohammed, Thank's a lot for your suggestions. The hot water plumbing route is more restricted than the cold water. This can be a understandable case. I have never thought about it. I will have a

Hi Peter, Nice to read from you. We are just in La Rochelle and Wilson is looking good! Tomorrow I will examine the pressure on the cold water tank and also on the boiler for the hot water. The

Hi. Interestingly we had a near miss lightning event some years ago. An electrical surge came into the boat, a lot through the radar and the aerials. We had two identical backup Furuno digital GPS

Hi Craig, The frequency of AC is determined by the RPM of the genset. It would not be feasible to change the speed . Generators consist of an engine directly connected to an alternator to

Hi Eric, I googled the spec sheet on your MDKAV and it says it runs at 1500 rpm. It's the newer model that runs at 2900 rpm. I should think a variable speed would be great at it would always present a

Good day to all, For those of you who are fairly new to their boats and are not completely sure that the previous owner ran their generators at the proper load or whether that is effective enough, I

If you also have a Raymarine Chart plotter, make sure that the nmea output from the course computer runs directly to the Chart plotter. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite Amel Super Maramu #376

Craig, My Onan is a MDKAV model and I don’t have the slightest idea how many rpm the 3 cylinder Kubota is running at. However it puts out 220-230 volts at 50 cycles. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite

HelloPhilipp; I'mnot familiar with the exact plumbing on a SM. However, since most plumbingshould be similar, I can think of two possibilities: The hot water plumbing route is more restricted

I should mention that our main GPS sensor and the AIS GPS sensor, both from B&G, came with big warnings that these should not be installed up the mast. So both were installed at deck level.

Hi Philipp That sounds like you have no pressure on your accumulator tank. Between coldwater pump and hot-water-tank you will find the accumulator tank. You can check the pressure via a valve, like

Alex, Do you have a diesel fuel cap for a 54? Peter Forbes Carango Amel 54 #035 Anguilla ppsforbes@... The Old Rectory Farnham Blandford Dorset DT11 8DE Peter Forbes 0044 7836

Your AIS transmitter depends on its own GPS receiver for the millisecond-accurate time data supplied by GPS. This is how packet-collisions are prevented. If you remove the GPS aerial the

Hi All owners from "old" Super Maramus, I have the situation, that on my SM #124 I have alternating hot and warm water in the showers. The cold water is this season in La Rochelle real cold, that I

Craig, Of course the generator does not have a variable speed. What I meant is that we usually do not run the genset under enough load. 80 percent of the output of a 7.5 kw genset, I believe should

Hey Alexandre, I've found the Northern Lights to be really good. Mine has 7500 hours, doesn't burn a drop of oil and only routine maintenance needed (never rebuilt). I'm now installing my 3rd set
