Bill, Extremely well explained. Thanks. I still want to know why the management of Amel decided to have nothing on the 54. It must have been a Henri vs Us situation. I think I know who won those argum

A lot of us call it a Boom Vang but is more accurately described as a downwind kicker. 20mm 3-strand nylon L = 145cm eye center to eye center CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School +1 832-380-4970 | b

Here is what I think: I choose ACMO. They are real quality. But use ACMO, if for no other reason the wire will be cut to exact OEM measurements and will be the last spec that Amel gave them. Some of y

Stefan, Regarding the Climma 9 Compact unit, I have the value of the Klixon at RS 121, but I am not sure what RS 121 stands for. I do not have the value of the fuse. Do you have the values, and/or can

Every time I experienced this on our SM or others the cause was poor air flow triggering the safety cutoff switch, and the most common causes are in this order: 1.) Fan capacitors out of spec. 2.) The

Paul, I do not think a late model SM bow thruster will fit. I have not seen a technical drawing for a Sharki Bow Thruster. Ask SAV@.... There is not an Amel graveyard that I am aware of. Bill CW B

I like Micron 66 because it reacts with saltwater to release biocide and is microscopically ablative. I think all of the Micron series is a hard paint that is microscopically ablative, each with diffe

Paul, Probably none of the other members know that you own Amel Sharki with hull #19. I am guessing #19 was made in 1979. I am not sure which Amel retractable bow thrusters will match your Amel. Maybe

Mike, I have always believed that heat in the C-drive is the result of heat transfer from the main engine. The main engine's operating temperature is 80C, and after around an hour of motoring in tropi

Nick, I am not sure, but I think it may be able to be caulked on the deck. Here is a photo of an A55 staysail chainplate from inside the forward locker. The two smaller bolts are from the top fixture

Eric, Yes, that is my understanding, at least for some of the SMs built, maybe all of them, but certainly all that I have seen. And I believe the issue is that over time the screw sealant deteriorates

Doug, Maybe this helps and maybe it will make sense to those Amel owners who have not experienced vacuum controls on a diesel engine. On older diesel engines for boats, there was no vacuum. The D3 mig

Ian & Doug, Ian is absolutely correct. An AutoProp will not bite the water when tied up at the dock, versus going forward. Bill CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School +1 832-380-4970 | brouse@...

Doug, All I can add is that in your situation it is almost always the autoprop. One barnacle on one blade at just the right spot can cause that single blade to dig deeper in the water. Also, I am sure
