All Amel owners, All Models, This is important. I am seeing more and more of this halyard wrapping problem. I wrote everyone about this several months ago and since then there have been 3 incidences t

Alex, I am glad you have the pump back in working condition. The pump is self-priming. After opening the pump as you did, as you start up the system, you need to open a tap inside the boat for the pum

It is very easy to mount the one-way valve backward. And, sometimes the on-way valve will get stuck open with a piece of debris. Also, this is very important, any suction leak of any kind will cause t

Nick the pole fittings were originally riveted. Someone has tampered with this and that caused your paint to bubble. My guess is that they drilled the rivet holes larger and this caused moisture to ge

You cannot drain all of the water without turning the Isotherm vertical. You can drain most of the water by loosening the "Cold Water IN" connection. Bill CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School +1 832

Ian, thanks for that. I assumed that the bushings would reduce the oscillation caused by the furler gearbox on the stay. I assume that someone at Amel many years ago assumed the same. Regarding this c

Yes, Isotherm did not originally have the mixing valve. Sometime around 2006 or so they added it. CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School +1 832-380-4970 | brouse@... 720 Winnie, Galveston Island

Whichever you choose, be sure to specify "Isolated Ground." Beta routinely offers Isolated Ground, Yanmar specs do not list this as an option, but maybe you can get it. CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht

Chris, Thanks for the information because you included some things that are easily ignored by many of us and we all need a reminder. The 24-volt circuit that this fixture is on was designed to carry a
