Wow, forgot yours is the15 th Sharki built. I believe they made 185 of them in total. 1985 is when the big changes were made; new mast design, electric furlers, and such. The newer ones resemble more

I'll be happy to take pictures of my holding tank. Actually amel designed and built, but you can do this locally. Very ingenious and clever. Electronics wise I'm Using B&G stuff (came with the boat).

Congrats on your sharki. I own #165 a 1988 model. She is on the hard being serviced with a variety of projects. I went Amel factory back in November and asked for a bunch of documents. I would suspect
