Re: Greasing stegring cables
The cables are sealed. The racks and pinion have to be disassembled to add grease. Best, CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School - www.AmelOwnersYachtSchool.com 720 Winnie St Galveston Island, TX 77550 +1(832) 380-4970

Re: Bimini Twist Lock Fastener
Paul Stascavage
Thank you for your reply Ann-Sofie,
The ones I saw at sailrite were all either 22mm hole to hole or just under 16mm. I'll take another look. All the best, Paul Stascavage SM #466 - s/v Rita Kathryn Currently Exploring Brunswick, GA www.RitaKathryn.com

Hey Paul - Can't help you with the fasteners, but if you're exploring Brunswick, GA this is an absolute must visit." A short walk from the marina. Cheers, Craig

Re: Bimini Twist Lock Fastener

Thank you Gerhard. From the description I am not sure if the overall length is 22mm or if the hole to hole dimension is 22mm.
Have you purchased this item or can you verify that the hole to hole dimension is 20mm? Thank you for your time. All the best, Paul Stascavage SM #466 - s/v Rita Kathryn Currently Exploring Brunswick, GA www.RitaKathryn.com

Re: Heaving-to experiences/advice, and Jordan series drogue use
Hi Kent,
thanks for your advice. What Eric on Kimberlite reports is really impressive - and completely in line with what I have heard from other sailors with gale / storm / hurricane experiences. What our Amel's do stand and perform in heaving-to is already more than amazing, but the Jordan Sea Drogue is 'the saviour'. I have decided now finally to install one. For questions of the bridle (I have a bring at the Stern for solar / wind turbines / dinghy) and retrieval and where to buy I will contact Eric directly. Once again thanks a lot and happy saling with JSD onboard without taking her out! Alexander SY Oceanica I, Amel54 #156

Bimini Twist Lock Fastener
Paul Stascavage
Good day to all.
Has anyone located a source for the Twist Lock Fasteners that are mounted on the hard dodger for locking down the bimini side curtains and the tonneau cover? I can only find ones whose center hole to center hole measurement for the mounting screws, is either larger or smaller than the 20mm ones that we have on our boat. Please see the photos below.

Re: Supermaramu wire sizes?
Dan, I am sure that you know this: In Europe the wire is sized in square mm. You might want to measure the diameter of the existing wire, calculate the area of the cross-section in square mm, then if you need AWG, use an online conversation chart to get to AWG. Here is one: Best, CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School - www.AmelOwnersYachtSchool.com 720 Winnie St Galveston Island, TX 77550 +1(832) 380-4970

Supermaramu wire sizes?
Hello SM owners,
Does anyone know the original wire sizes for the following: 1) 100 amp charger to battery switch 2) 30 amp charger to battery switch 3) Battery switch to bow thruster The wiring does not appear to be labeled. And I'm not a good judge by eye. I'm in Panama right now trying to search the forum from my phone with my cell connection isn't working for me. Thanks and regards, Daniel Carlson on SM #387, sv BeBe

Re: Heaving-to experiences/advice, and Jordan series drogue use
Alexander, search this forum for Jordan Drogue and you will find detailed post from Eric on Kimberlite about using one in hurricane conditions.

Re: Yanmar 4jh3-hte overheat
Hi Duane,
when you install 2 of them you can also save the genset!! With this instrument the water pump belt, impeller, seawater filter and closed seacock are under control!!
