Ruslan, I believe there is a new Mantus swivel stowed away on Phantom. I just never installed it. You might want to try it, as I was always a bit nervous with the ball swivel. Jamie Ex-owner Phantom,

Doug, if you open up the panel below the top-loader, you will see the compressor. It has a basic temperature switch mounted at the top of the compressor and wired into the compressor run circuit. It s

By the way, my BLDC variable-speed-drive pump has been running flawlessly now going on 2 seasons. I would already be ordering another original-spec Flojet otherwise. Jamie Previous Owner, Phantom, A54

Doug, I thought you were in the process of installing our famous brushless DC pump for the refrigerators? The variable drive BLDC pump will definitively stop the motor burnout Scott was referencing, b

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone in the Amel world for your support to me and my Amel 54, Phantom over the years. It has been most enjoyable and enlightening. It is with both ha

Does anyone know of a contractor in Annapolis, MD that understands how to do the routine maintenance on the Amel C-Drive? Thanks, Jamie Wendell Phantom, A54 #44

I just want to let the group know that my Amel 54, Phantom is going to be for sale shortly. I posted a message in the "Yachts for Sale" subgroup for those who might be interested - yachtforsale@AmelYa

Doug, nice find. Did you buy them off the RuuviTag website? I assume you can simply place in your freezer and read the temps remotely via Bluetooth. It would really be great if you could get them to c

By the way, I forgot to mention that I do not have that second plate on the deck, nor do I have the larger plate you show on the inside. I have only the upper curved plate, which limits access. It see

Nick, I have the same problem and it has been staining the inside wall of the forward head down to the towel bar for quite some time. Outside caulking did not work for me, even though I took off the i

Reading this thread, I thought I might add a few words here, as I have an Amel 54 which I absolutely love. While I like some of the "features" of the 55 (and yes even the 50 which would be out of my r

Bill, can you elaborate on your setup. The way you show the drawing it appears as if you actually have 36 volts per "leg" vs 24 volts. I may be misunderstanding the drawing, but I doubt that is the ca

Paul, I had them installed several years ago and they all failed to deliver for me after a couple of years. The issue was always voltage drop under high loads like bow thrusters, etc. Eventually, I co

Eric, can you tell us who makes those levers and where you bought them? Maybe a part number? I have seen this before and have been considering exactly this solution, but have had difficulty locating t

Dean, I faced the same dilemma. The only answer is that you have to break out the epoxy seal and then replace when you are complete. I saw no other way to route big battery cables but as you show. Sor

Oh, by the way, I want to thank Scott on Tengah for his help and encouragement in doing this project. We did collaborate, and I understand he did a similar install based on another solution, but evide

Just to chime in on this discussion, on my A54, I replaced the original MEJ1.02 on the genoa with a Reckman while in Martinique a couple of years ago. Expensive - yes indeed, but absolutely bulletproo

OK, backed by some nice encouragement from Bill I am providing the details needed for those willing to embark on a brushless motor (BLDC) solution for the A54 refrigeration water pump. I am attaching

I just wanted to let the Amel group know that I have been successful in installing a fully operational brushless motor to power my A54 refrigeration system. I understand there were previous discussion

Ulrich, I think they called them rubber boots but I don't remember. When I ordered, I ordered the joysticks and boots separately. That is the way they work. Again, the name is APEM. This is the refere
