Hi Miles, How do your new insurance premiums compare with the Jackline Policy? Who is the underwriter?. We'll be sailing up to Maine this Summer, if you're going to be in Newport, I'd love to stop for

Hi Richard, welcome to the group! There is a subgroup in this forum where owners can post their yachts for sale. I can't imagine selling Kristy and not notifying the group first. If you are in the US,

Hi Eloi, I will post a few pics when all is completed, probably in 2-3 weeks. The seat was raised enough to add the pull-out trays where cushions are placed. Kent and Iris SM 243 Kristy

Please let us know your thoughts, what ever they are, regarding a possible Amel owners group policy. Here is a beief survey to assess interest. It only takes a few minutes and will determine if there

We modified the settee so that the back can recline a little, and added pullout footrests. It is much more comfortable to sit in than before. We are adding a mini projection TV above the settee and a

There is a small group of us that are looking at group insurance options again. We have a group member now who has experience with this who is taking the lead. Rather than get everyobe involved now, w

Thanks, Scott. I don’t remember seeing that in an earlier post. I’ve seen a pic somewhere of much thicker and somewhat longer foam pieces at shorter intervals. When we get back to the boat I’ll look a

I had the same problem. I wanted to install a new antenna for my AIS at the top of the mizzen to get it away from the VHF antenna. We couldn't pull the new cable from either end as it got stuck at the

Hi Eric. Sorry, I thought I posted pics. I am going to the boat today, will post some pics Tonite or tomorrow. It is similar to your old install/refit, but Kristy has a step attached to the cockpit so

Hi Juan, Thank you for answering my post about transmission . I had a similar issue with my ONAN shutting down and found that the sensor on the exhaust elbow was faulty. I had a spare and was back und

Bill K, Thank you for this clear explanation of the Hurth/ZF transmissions. I haven't read this anywhere before and have never understood why my helm has a sign that says in French, not to put in reve

I had a similar experience with my D60 when I replaced the membranes a couple of years ago. I used the fresh water pump to flush water thru the high pressure pump for a minute or two, then turned the

I had the same black growth in my tank the first time I looked. I tried weak bleach solution, vinegar, power washer, all with inadequate results. Someone suggested that the growth is probably a bacter

I'm interested. I have three outputs on the manifold, Yanmar, Onan, and AC. The heads each have separate through hulls. Kent SM 243 , Kristy

Hi Pat, Great, I'm going to give it a try. It's going to have to wait, though, we've decided to cancel our sailing plans until the Covid rules stabilize... the BVI approach finally did it for me. Kris

Hi JB, Welcome to the AYOG and congrats on your new to you Amel. As previously noted, a year or so ago, two members with some Insurance know-how tackled the possibility of a group policy, but ran into
