Well Done Dave!. Tenacity. New name for the boat perhaps! This is a case of get to know the previous owner. When and If Perigee ever sells, these are the stories that say this is a well loved, maintai

On our 54 its the ball valve for the port side Aircond drain that gets clogged and then the tray overfills. Fresh water. Not sure if the SM is similar. S.V IBIS A54-152

We also have the desalator 160. I have been running the BTM 61 as a replacement. For about a year. And I agree: not enough pressure. With fresh pre filters we start with the low pressure needle much c

The SAV from Amel is one of the prime reasons to own an Amel. In talking to the owners of so many other production yachts there is usually either no service or poor service, with the exception to Leop

This is what Dessalator recommends. (Or flaretite seals.) The 542 works beautifully. Let it cure for 24 hours prior to use. I use it on all the high pressure fittings: apply with Q tip to the angled f

Thanks Gents. Appreciate the response. The Victron gear is pretty amazing. I’ll just leave it on standard settings. That was my concern with unlimited charging and no discharging I didn’t want to dama

Hello All, I am hoping someone might have done a bit of thinking on this question, who has greater insight on AGM chemistry than I. My questions surrounds storage of AGMs and solar charging. I have no

Why not sail up to Martinique and do it at the Amel base there? Once you’ve seen it done, it’s not difficult at all. Just several critical and important steps, all detailed in the forum here. Porter M

Interestingly, I bought a new BTM in Tahiti. To replace the old Leroy somer lift pump for desalator 230v. It leaked in the first week. I watched it as it was minimal. Finally changed the seal, no long

Again. A precovid vote for Q sails. A bit later than expected but great hydranet sails at a great price. Occasionally a stutter in communication. Mizzen, Genoa and a light weight asym. Very happy afte

As a side note on the long runs from the starting battery to generator and engine and the house batteries to the bow thruster, don’t overlook the resistance of simple wire terminal corrosion. The term

Agree with Danny and Doug as well. Our experience was the same: vibration means something is amiss and you need to investigate. Use the comfortable bands of rpm to get where you need to go. Malalignme

Thankyou Thomas et al. Good to know we’re in good company! I cannot find further screws. A pal down the dock and wooden boat builder thinks there remains glue which prevents the removal. Interesting t

The one behind the hydraulic lift is one that screws to starboard into the pillar? I got that one. And incidentally the starboard side moves some with encouragement but the port side is stuck solid. I
