Oh no...MOLD
We have mold all over the backrest in the midship cabin, and to a lesser extent in the forward cabin. I tried two mold removers with partial success, but we still have spots. Amazon's Mildew Stain

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Colour code gelcoat hull SM 2K
No. Ivoire is the colour for the deck and cockpit. I think it was used to reduce the glare you get from a white deck. I’ve used a standard white on hull repairs with a fair enough match.

Hi Willem
I asked Maud this question last September, that was the answer
Most of the color codes for the Gelcoat of the Super do not exist as they are special and unique.
However we have 2 RAL

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Hookah System
Hi Danny, I don't have a compressor to fill tanks. The home-brewed hookah was $125 and I have an air compressor for other uses. Taking a tank ashore to refill doesn't appeal to me.

absolutly right
oïl pump is gone - we found it badly scored on inner body & rotating part; as I could not find a replacement I fitted it again in 'as is' condition.
therefore engine runs
