seems that perhaps it is a problem with the shutdown solenoid as it stays closed and it does not allow the engine to start afterwards. The problem is not consistent on my boat but I start the engine in advance just in case I might have a problem. I am waiting for the Amel reply and post it to you asap.

Re: Minwax urethane finish & Eno manual
Stephan Regulinski
John,
With this like-new propane locker, try glueing two plastic washers to the door where the bolts come through and the plastic nuts screw on. This will protect your stunning new finish and make you a lifetime member of the compulsive maramu maintenance maniacs group. Can you scan in your Eno manual and post it somewhere? I would love a copy, but being "out there" mail is a little cumbersome.

As to the wash-down pump. I have had Amel replace mine twice under warranty. I dissambled both pumps and found the failure to be the same, the pump body cracks at the point where the outlet pipe screws into the base. This is a plastic part and needs to be redimensioned here or replaced with metal. One of the Amel LaRochelle people confirmed that these pumps always fail at this point. When the time comes to replace this pump at my cost, I will choose a different brand. Sorry, no insight on your low pressure pump for the water maker. Stephan

Minwax urethane finish & Eno manual
John & Ruth Martin <jjmartin24@...>
Hello all,
I refinished my propane locker door with Minwax "Helmsman" urethane semigloss from the spray can. It looks like the Amel original factory finish. I put 4 coats on, one after the other, no sanding between coats or waiting for drying time. The only difference between the Helmsman and their regular urethane is the Helmsman has UV protection in it. If I use it to refinish wood in the cabin I'll use the regular Minwax as the UV protection has a slightly darker tint. If anyone needs an English version of the Eno propsane stove operational manual, it is not long and I'd be glad to mail it to you.

[Amel Yacht Owners] Riviere Salee In Guadeloupe
Anne and John Hollamby <hollamby@...>
Message text written by INTERNET:amelyachtowners@yahoogroups.com
<Dear Gary, If you are talking about the river that runs through the middle of Guardaloupe, we took our last boat, an Oyster 435, also 2mtr draft, through it and do not recall any problems. However had we gone aground at the end of the main runway which is only about 30 or 40 yards from the river we would have had horrendous disasters as we saw when we stopped some way back and watched a Jumbo run up to full power with the brakes on prior to take-off.The awesome sight could only have been bettered if Jumbos had afterburners !! You do not say which pressure vessel failed but I am sure it must be the one hidden behind the genset. The one on top of the pump set is stainless whereas the second one is steel and failed,I think, not only because it is steel but also because it is fitted with a copper elbow. The vessel is a bog standard unit which I replaced with an identical one purchased from an agricultural irrigation shop here in Malta.That size is only sold here in mild steel but one can buy the small one fitted to the pumpset or a much larger one in stainless.So I fitted the steel one but used plastic elbows etc instead of copper. Whether this will solve the problem I do not know,but has already been there longer than the original. Just why two pressure vessels are used is beyond me, perhaps Amel felt that the bigger stainless one was too large to put on the pumpset. Your tale of the failed pump for the desalinater is a worry. I think I should get a bit more warning of such a failure as I fitted a second bilge alarm about 9" down on the aft side of the sump because the standard one is higher up and I was having trouble with the electric bilge pump valves which resulted in grey water getting all over the engine room floor. This additional (electronic) alarm needed a metal shield over it to stop false alarms from water spray when the washing machine discharged into the sump. Best wishes, Anne and John Hollamby Bali Hai SM 2000 319

Amel Mango for sale
amelmango <chiefnelson@...>
Hello fellow Amel owners,
We reluctantly have our 1983 Amel Mango up for sale. After having it listed in Soundings and Northwest Yachting, and after having every donation company, broker, and lowball buyer contact us to either give it away or steal it, which given the economy might be understandable, we thought of turning to other Amel owners for a hand. While we were cruising we came across many people who were interested in the boat, too bad we didn't want to sell then! So we thought if anyone knew of someone who would be interested in an Amel, but didn't want a new boat, and would consider a great boat at a fair price, we would sure appreciate you passing this info on to them. The boat is located in Portland, Oregon, USA and more info can be found at http://groups.msn.com/amelmango Thanks for your help and we hope you have a great spring sailing season. Best regards, Adam Nelson
