Hello Marco, Welcome to the Amel family. We , too, started our sailing with a Vega, which we loved. Then we discovered Amel and our first Amel was a Sharki which we loved even more !. Your video broug

Hi Scott, In common with many SM owners we found ourselves having to clean the aft waterline too often. After studying a variety of waterlines on different yachts we took the plunge when we put Copper

Hi David, About 10 years ago we switched to an ordinary Jabsco model. Slightly noisier, more powerful ( we don't have showering teenagers on board ! ) . Cheaper than the original Amel pump. We carry a

Hi Eric, I'm not sure that Vetus still stock the switches--I couldn't find them on their catalog. However, they are available from Herth + Buss, the manufacturers, from their Elparts section. Also on

Hello, I need to replace the two button switches on the top of my Lofrans winch. In the past I have bought replacements from a German source but I am not on the boat and cannot recall the manufacturer
