[Amel Yacht Owners] Repower

Can't wait to see the before and after. I really understand the delay issue. Steve On Jun 25, 2015, at 11:17, Germain Jean-Pierre jgermain@... [amelyachtowners] <amelyachtowners@...> wrote:

Yep....Yanmar 80 turbo. We are trying to sort out the 2 alternator option, and then get the engine to the yard in St Augustine. With a little luck, we will get North by late July or early August. You probably know better than most how these things can go, so we are keeping our fingers crossed. The boat is ready other than the new motor.

Hi Steve and Liz, We are in Goček Turkey, tolerating the delays... We are preparing a before and after document for interested viewers. I will send you the link soon. Cheers On 25 Jun 2015, at 16:58, flyboyscd@... [amelyachtowners] <amelyachtowners@...> wrote:

I'll be late getting there, too, Steve. Going to get the electrical problems solved before I go North again. Still hope to be Cape Cod area by midJuly. I think you're making the right decision about the engine. Is it a Yanmar 80HP? Turbo? Kent From: "flyboyscd@... [amelyachtowners]" To: amelyachtowners@... Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2015 10:18 AM Subject: Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Repower Thanks Kent. We have decided to go with the 80hp, as I just don't want to risk CDrive issues. I hope you have your electrical gremlins sorted soon, and are back on the water. We still hope to see you up North this summer, but we are going to be a bit late due to the engine issues.

Thanks Jean-Pierrre. I'd love to have a simple normally aspirated engine, but we don't seem to have many non turbo options. John Deere makes an 80hp, but I need to check on fitment issues. How is you beautifully restored boat performing, and where are you located now?

Totally agree with "non-turbo".

My TDM22 only has 650 hours… so I’m keeping it for some time. However, if I was thinking of a engine replacement, I would think seriously about 80 or so horses in non turbo charger configuration. TC’s are a PITA. Kind regards, Jean-Pierre Germain SY Eleuthera, SM007.

Hi Steve, Ask Amel if your drive is robust enough for the 110. I understand that it was beefed up at some point prior to 1999, but don't know when that was. If you do repower with the 110, use the Yanmar mounts recommended by Yanmar...or comparable. In spite of the problems I've had, I'm happy I made the change after several years of dealing with my Volvo TMD22 78HP. I can't say that the power difference is significant in terms of performance or fuel efficiency, so if you find something you like in the 80 HP range, I'd be happy with that as well. Main thing is having it installed and propped appropriately. Kent SM243 Kristy On Jun 24, 2015, at 3:15 PM, flyboyscd@... [amelyachtowners] <amelyachtowners@...> wrote:
