In line with Dean's comment, here's another opinion and my experience. I had a brand new set of Victron batteries in 2020 and and for good reason ($$$) I am nurturing them. WG has solar panels with Vi

I tried solving the problem per the suggestion of letting all the chain out in deep water and allowing it to untwist. However, once the twist is located in the anchor locker, the larger diameter of th

Hi Dean, I also have problems with chain twist. I have 10mm stainless steel chain, I don't know what my gypsy is (and I'm not aboard Wilna Grace to look) but the chain and gypsy are original from new

The countertop refrigerator on Wilna Grace has died, can anyone recommend a refrigeration engineer in Preveza please?

Had help from Martin last week and I too give a big thumbs up to the quality of support from Dessalator.

Just taken the solenoid valve out to give it a clean/pickle with some acid hopefully to cure a suspected slow leak. Reassembling the solenoid and associated plumbing, one particular connection would o

Many thanks Bill

Many thanks Vladan

Ian, Judy, I'm suspecting my refrigeration cooling circuit needs a clean out. Can you buy Rydlyme in Greece? I'm currently in Preveza.

With regards GP90 I can confirm Nick's message as I too have been in touch with Furuno UK about my GP90. FYI, I have a Furuno NavNet vx2 and RDP149, along with Raymarine AIS700 and Icom IC-M506 DSC ra

I have a Highfield CL290 with 15HP Honda 4 stroke. Regret not getting the CL310 or CL340 as the CL290 is too short for the spacing of the davits on my A54 (fitted after I bought the dinghy). In the ev

A lot of really helpful information has been written and shared about converting to lithium batteries and the benefits thereof (thank you all). Compared to my experience 20 years ago, when I lived abo

I have been looking over the displacement data for the Amel 54 and I notice there some discrepancies between some documents, I myself am now uncertain. Have various figures and conversions been confus

Measured mine last year when considering lithium - see attached sketch (dimensions are mm). Think this tallies with Dominique's response.

Hi Stefan, Had already bought replacement transducers from Maxmarine and was planning to install them but halted that project when the existing ones checked out okay at 111kΩ and so I started suspecti

Thanks for the advice Stefan. Yes I did check there was power going to the unit. I also checked the output to the H2000 and saw 150mV. But, darn it I didn't know to check the AGC voltage, I'll do that

Hi All, The sonic speed on Wilna Grace has not worked for sometime so with the wisdom learned from this group I've been investigating. Adjusting the spacing knob on the processing unit I'm unable to g

Thanks Olivier and Roque, I have checked for leaks everywhere and all is tight so before getting into more technical thoughts I wanted to check I wasn't making a silly mistake. Will check the solenoid

I'm having a mental moment/doubts concerning the correct positions for the three-way valve on the watermaker (Duo 100 on an A54) Restarted the watermaker yesterday (after it had been pickled for a cou

Wilna Grace has twelve new 110AH Victron Gel batteries and I'm keen to look after them carefully! The bank is charged either by solar and a Victron MPPT 100/50 or a Victron Multiplus 24V 3000W 70A. I
