Dear Amelians with VP D3-110 C engines, As disused few weeks ago, I made some research about the D3-110 sensors and asked SAV. AMEL re-directed me to GWEN Marine which is the Volvo supplier in

Hi Slavko On my Sharki I have a 20 kg Rocna. Due to Covid I spent 18 months at anchor in Martinique and I can assure you that it is truly a great anchor. The only defect I found is the low thickness
