Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Bilge Pump Quit
Hello Mark,
My plan was to buy a Rule 2000 and use it while I figured out how to fix the old one. But, after meeting... (and sailing with) several Amel owners, I have decided to KEEP the Rule 2000

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Viewing Amel 54 - what to look for?
Hi Scott;
I truly am not aware of anything that I would consider Amelspecific problem areas. Every boat has design considerations that appeal to someand not to others. Other than design related

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Re: Companionway well drain
Hi Ryan. Usually the drain is a metal/bronze??? pipe of small diameter that is often/usually connected to a hose that drains to the sump. Sounds like you are on the right track. Let us know…

Apologies, I'm Scott.
Thanks for the recommendation on the surveyor. The boat I'm looking at is in France, so I'll reach out to Olivier and mention that you sent me his way. :)

Hi Joel,
Do you have a photo of what the well drain looks like? I had my well fill up a month or so ago and it did not drain on its own. Some time later, I found a little black tube above the sump

Pat,
Batteries kept at 100% charge, or near so, by an accurate float charger do age, but very slowly. Batteries kept this way should last a very long time. Eight to ten years would not be at all
