I have to agree completely. On so many issues. The after sales support from Amel is mind bogglingly good. Thierry rocks. He’s bailed us out of so many situations, expeditiously and courteously. Porter

C-Drive Oil drain - Alternative
Thanks Craig. So it’s entirely possible we had a small ingress of seawater while the seals “seated,” and that settles at the lowest point in the system, certainly not in the reservoir/expansion tank (

Re milky oil: also for us just now, the oil seemed very slightly milky after an oil change in NZ about 50 hours ago. Now after about another 10 hours all seems fine. I also would love an explanation o

This is the kind of project I would not undertake unless within walking distance to a great chandlery ripe with plumbing options. My adventure down this rabbit hole was complicated even with one close

Ours sits also in the same spot. Rests on its feet. No issues with plenty of sailing. We take it out and put in the middle of the cockpit to use it so it’s well ventilated. Porter Porter McRoberts S/V

Canvassing for ideas: removing motor housing A54 “MAT” foiling motor.
Dear Amelians: I beg any insight if you would. This is a 1.5 year old motor and housing from Amel for the main sail foil furling motor. The last one, seal was damaged and the whole unit unsalvageable.

Not that I’ve got lithium’s, but will hopefully at some point. Why not ask the battery manufacturer how to park the batteries? Surely they have a recommendation? Interesting thread. Thanks. Porter Por

Scuba compressor recommendations
We bought a used Bauer Junior II. 230/50hz. Wired it directly to the breaker board. We keep it in the port side cockpit lazarette and run it in the cockpit. The coolest, shadiest most well ventilated

Thanks Nick! I appreciate it. Yes. That’s the elbow. They have others in brass here too. They’ve worked up the pump with another brass one. And also used Teflon tape to seal the high pressure threads,
