Fire extinguishers for Amel 54
Hi, I need to replace all fire extinguishers on an Amel 54, located in the southern Caribbean. Would anyone know where I can get the right size replacements that will fit the existing brackets? Thanks

Thanks for the replies. It seems that the float level of 13.6v is the general consensus. My chargers, Dolphin, which came with the boat, do not have a specific AGM setting. The nearest one is for "sea

After installing new batteries I checked the voltage at the battery 24v circuit and it was reading about 60V. I immediately disconnected the solar regulator and it dropped to 26V. I repeated this to b

Fresh water accumulator
Hi, When I run a water tap the pressure drops very low until the pump kicks in. The result is that the water pressure from the tap is very up and down. This never used to happen. Looking at the pressu

Fresh water accumulator
Mohammed, The pressure with no water i the accumulator is 0.4 bar as Bill said. It pressures up to 3.4 when the tap is turned off. When the tap is running, it drops to 1 bar in about two seconds then

Peter, Thanks. It looks like the small unit attached to the pole has corrosion. Would you know if this is reparable or will I need to get a replacement from Amel? See photo below. Cheers, Paul
