Re: winterizing the watermaker
You have to manually disconnect the small plastic fittings at the flow meter and drain it, as well as the return hose at the panel. There will be water in both the hose and the sight glass if you do

Re: Volvo 12v alternator
So here’s a couple of things that we learned about the alternator systems on the Volvo. Our original problem was that the 24 V alternator was not charging until fairly high rpm above 1800.

Re: Credit when credit is due
I have to agree completely. On so many issues.
The after sales support from Amel is mind bogglingly good.
Thierry rocks. He’s bailed us out of so many situations, expeditiously and courteously.

I am not sure if the following applies to the Volvo 12v alternator, but it applies to the Yanmar 12v alternator:

Amel is ranked above all other boat builders in terms of supplying parts to boats built 20+ years ago. I agree and it is one of the reasons that Amel owners support Amel and have given Amel this
