ERIC LICHTY & ROBYN ATKINSON
Hello Group: Eric and Robyn here on LIBBY, SM#196, 1997 build, sailing out of Los Angeles Jib furler motor stopped working. Removed cover and found a handful of salt residue up to and in the brush sets. Confirmed power to motor and foil turning easily. Cleaned/vaccumed salt deposits then electrical cleaner and corrosionx. Motor runs quiet and strong, back in business. Now looking for source for brush set (4) for the 24v motor. Any spec. plate is long gone and inquiries to SAV@Amel indicate the motor and parts are no longer supported. Does anyone happen to have a source for those brushes or anyone with extra spares willing to sell four? Regards and good sailing, Eric

I have a source for a new motor if the Genoa furler is the version I think it is and not the earlier version. I can tell if you post a photo, and BTW, if any owner responds with spares, you will also need to determine the version. I will get back to you in a day or 2

Eric, I have seen two different styles of motor installed in the genoa furler, one in our (1996) original, and one from the end of the production run, and both are different than your photo! The early motor was a Bosch, and the later one was out of Iran. I can’t help you with a specific brush recommendation, but you might try here: https://www.graphitestore.com/Carbon-Brushes/BrushesThey have a huge variety of different brushes, and might be able to match what you have.

As soon as I receive an answer, I will get back to you.

Hello Eric,
i had similar Problems. These are old Bosch-Motors that are not supported any more. But Lofrans produces these motors now. for example "Lofrans-Tigres Anchorwinslet" is driven by exact this Motor. Best regards Marian

Eric,
Lofrans uses many different motors. Do you know which is the same as the genoa motor? | CW Bill Rouse Amel Owners Yacht School | | | 720 Winnie, Galveston Island, Texas 77550 | |

I have a 12v System. Furlermotor (Same as yours on your Picture) and Lofrans Tigres motor are the same. You need the 24v Motor i think. Both are available. My Contact to Lofrans was +39 039 2001973. you should talk to them because of the brushkits
Here are Pictures of my FurlerMotor ,
