Hello Bill and Craig, Yes, the question is about the fuel injection pump. On the Yanmar, it is a ZEXEL NP - VE - 4 / 12 F 1900 R NP1995. Craig, interesting that you had the pump rebuilt at 4,000 hrs..

Re Porter's scale. I have the Iridium external marine antenna installation (2015). The antenna is located aft, port side, where Amel used to install the GPS antenna. My findings: Iridium Go at the Nav

Hello, Looking at the Yanmar "Operation Manual", there is no mention of maintenance of the fuel pump, nor of any maintenance adjustment. In the "Periodic Checking List" page of the Yanmar "Service Man

Paul, We have that same chain. We bought it in August 2012. We had it galvanized it this week and installed it yesterday. I'd say it should have been galvanized around April, but I wasn't going to get

Kent, Peregrinus came from the factory all Raymarine (no B&G at all) with two sensor thru-hulls: 1. Speed sensor ("Fat") in the vestibule port of the fwd shower 2. Depth sensor ("Skinny") under the fo

I believe in the original design, only the power to the radio memory or radio clock is supposed to be truly permanent. My Fusion stereo has one (+) that is for "battery", i.e., a permanent connection.

Oops, I meant to say the factory outlet and switch are in the starboard locker; the Shurflo itself is on the factory location, a port shelf outboard of the watermaker pre filters and above the anchor

On No. 350, Peregrinus, no 60Hz devices come onboard. All devices are 50Hz or 50/60Hz. Most of the devices, by far, we purchased in the U.S. Amazon.co.uk is a great source. On #350, the 230V user pane

For two people living permanently on am SM2K, we find in cool climates you need the following to avoid damage from condensation arising from high humidity. 1. Always run the kitchen exhaust fan while

Hello Ryan, I converted all bulbs on hull № 350 to LED in 2013. I faced the same problem as you have. For my overhead lights, the two-pin socket which comes from the Amel factory aligning vertically c

Bill, Thanks for the detailed explanation. My only remaining question is if under "W", the autopilot is trying to optimize VMG to an Apparent Wind Angle AWA of zero, or is it trying to optimize to a s

Bill Kinney, I'm with Craig on this: I understand how VMG optimization works on Wind Navigation. I fail to see, however, how it might work on mere "W". What would it optimize to, if it does not now wh

John, Great experience, and great to hear Pamlico Sound can be done. Thanks for sharing. We've done bits and pieces of the ICW. We entered the Port Royal Sound from the Atlantic and turned S at the IC

Bill Kinney, I checked the box in "Autopilot > Sailing > VMG Optimizing". Thanks for the tip! Now, for this to work one must designate a waypoint to navigate to and activate "Wind Navigation", correct

Hello Dean, We bought our Navisafes back in 2012. We got the stickiness problem which led to the case eventually breaking at the screwing loops (i.e., the whole case) as I tightened it. I was going to

Paul, We kept the old Raymarine T-300 and associated ST7001+ control head. We have two rotary switches which let us choose which autopilot to engage (B&G or Raymarine), and which drive (rotary or line

Bill, We have the same B&G AC42, using a Victron DC-DC converter from 24V to 12V for the clutch. A great installation since 2014. What autopilot mode or setting is it that optimizes VMG when close-hau

Hello Bill Kinney, What model of B&G autopilot do you have on Harmony? Regards, Peregrinus SM2K N. 350 At anchor, Marathon

Hello Bill Kinney, Thank you for your detailed and informative post. My broken line is 16mm polyester double braid. Alpha Ropes states its breaking strength is 12,125 lbs. This line broke at 39 knots
