Re: Antal Genoa Traveler Blocks for sale
Alan Grayson
Hi Alan, For the one I have off the springs are good and I can rotate the pin by hand. The plastic rails are a bit sloppy compared to new ones but otherwise good order. I'll have the other one off tomorrow but currently I cannot move the pin.
Regards
Alan

I could be interested. Are the springs that hold the blocks up all working i.e. not broken? Have you ever taken the long pin out ? What's the condition of the plastic slides that bear on the track? Cheers Alan Elyse SM437

I have always used self amalgamating tape round the joint to keep moisture out. It does seem to keep the threads from slipping.

Re: A54 holding tank drain seasock
Randall Walker
When you say grip do you mean just get hard to turn? On my 54 I was about to remove and replace my handle. It was hard to turn and the tank would not empty, I thought it was the handle, it was sticky but it ended up being a build up of scale in the drain pipe. I put descaling liquid in (Harpic 10) that loosened the build up. In the end I got in the tender, used an old piece of 3/8 inch dowel/stick and ran it up the hole from the waterline, it broke the scaling and drained, now it turns easy and the tank drains properly. Re and re the valve could be a messy job. Cheers, Randall A54#56

These are simple thermal switches. They are normally closed. If the circuit opens up the genset stops. My problem is sometimes they burn out and other times I hit the switch and it separates. Fair Winds, Eric

A54 SSB Antenna
Sv Garulfo
Hello
Our SSB Antenna comes in 2 parts. The threading that connects them has gotten loose and we would like to find away to secure them that doesn’t impact the transmission. Has anyone had this issue? Any recommendations on how to fix this? Thanks Soraya Garulfo A54-122 Tahiti

Mike Longcor (SV Trilogy)
Thanks Eric. Sent you a message with order details. When these fail, go bad, or break, how do you know? Does it prevent the genset from starting/running? Or does it allow the genset to overheat if there are issues with the cooling system (broken impeller for example) and potentially damage things? Cheers, Mike Longcor SV Trilogy SM23 Opua, NZ

I took the stop off at the forward end of the track and undid the stanchion screws, then bent the stanchion out of the way and they just slid right off. Alan Grayson Sm 406 Ora Pai

Hi All, I have just bought new Antal Traveler Blocks for my Super Maramu. The reason I bought new ones is that a few older boats have experienced a few breakages and hopefully I will get to do a few more blue water passages and I’d prefer to not have them break underway. Anyway there is nothing visually wrong with my old ones so I am offering them up for sale for anyone who would like one or both in their spares locker. I’d like around $100USD each Regards Alan Grayson Sm 406 Ora Pai

Re: Color code of hull Amel 54
Here's an excellent you-tube video on gelcoat color mixing from Boatworks Today, a great blog that covers every aspect of fiberglass repairs. It works!
It's a two part program, this is part 1. https://www.boatworkstoday.com/videos/gelcoat-color-matching-part-1/ -- Craig & Katherine Briggs SN 68 Sangaris Tropic Isle Harbor, FL

Re: Color code of hull Amel 54
I agree. Even if you had the original color codes or even a container of the original material, it is not going to match the color of your boat today.
