Foredeck LEWMAR hatch gaskets
Very curious indeed. Like I said it’s been some time. Clearly the balance of intel suggests they are all the same! I’ll have to remeasure. Appreciate the correction. Porter W. Porter McRoberts A54-152

Foredeck LEWMAR hatch gaskets
My recollection is that the big hatch over the galley table is normal profile, but the remaining three are low profile? Possibly the fogged lens/ forward head is also normal profile. Been 6 years sinc

They are both Martin. You have to measure them and check in their website. I’ve forgotten which is which but buy gasket material for both. Porter A54-152 IBIS

Electric furler connection to Genoa foil
What’s the easiest way to hoist the foil? I would use the spinnaker halyard attached to a sling of webbing around the Genoa and foil and lift. There should be holes I think you’re correct in assuming

LEAK FROM PIPEWORK BELOW ISOTHERM
Geoff. You need the specific tool to release the pipe from the fitting. If you do not use the tool, which depresses metal flanges which serve to bite into the external PVC, removal will injure the pip

Amel Super Mistral Sport
I saw one in Guadeloupe about 6 years go. Was walking along, it stopped me in my tracks. Knowing likely this boat had been all the places we want to go. I studied it for a while and could see the gene

Patches below waterline
Martin. For what it’s worth, we had exactly the same looking patches, and it was indeed anti fouling that had flaked off and then been repainted over. Looked precisely the same as yours. Porter A54-15

Precisely my same conclusion Paul. Perhaps a small/flush backing plate if the locker is violated. That’s the best solution as the foam is moderately deformed from gravity, re-glueing is an auto of fru

Fiji Boat Yards
Mark I’d differ just a bit. I’d do a Haulout and bottom work in Fiji. Likely that’s on the list. I found the Fijian bottom work superior to the Opua bottom work. Both Denarau and Vuda quite reasonable

Raising the waterline on an Amel that lists to one side?
Scott. A question and your thoughts if you would. I imagine the port side list also fully submerges the engine exhaust, generator exhaust and raw bilge water exit. Does that generate any concerns rega
