Amel Support
My 24/7 Amel Support and Amel Book and Amel Book Supplements solve most of these issues. Amel
Yachts are the safest and most comfortable in their class to cross oceans and explore the world. Amel's components and systems are supplied by some of the best sources available. Amel's goal has always been to engineer the yacht. This makes maintaining an Amel a joy rather than a chore. Your neighbors at anchor will be sweating while repairing many failures; aboard your Amel, you and your sailing partner enjoy the surroundings and a beautiful sunset. However, any yacht wholly equipped with the best systems can be challenging to understand, maintain, and repair...especially in unfamiliar places. Having your personal consultant available to Support you 24/7 is, at least, comforting and, in some cases, "priceless." I also offer Unlimited 24/7 Amel Support with ZOOM and Refit Support, both with ZOOM. The two-way video interaction to solve issues is perfect for those new to Amel and is only available from Amel Owners Yacht School. Direct communication with 3rd parties is included, which helps you solve problems efficiently.

Online Supplements File Index of over 6,500 Files. The Supplement Files are available for viewing or downloading. Most of these are "How To" files that I have created, sometimes with the help of other Amel owners. As new information becomes available, I update the files in the Cloud. You will likely receive new and updated information if you downloaded a particular file a year ago, and new information becomes available by clicking on the same file name. This is the first issue of this index. It will improve.
Supplements File Search Powered by Google; this will SEARCH the 6,500 files I store in the cloud using a keyword or phrase. These files include over 1100 How-To Files created by Bill Rouse, most with instructions and photos. Also, I've included in your search all Amel Manuals and Manufacturer Manuals of Devices installed by Amel.
How 24/7 Amel Support Works:
I suggest a text before calling to be sure I am available and not currently helping another Amel owner. I also recommend sending any pertinent photos.

This is a special kind of Support where a significant amount of my involvement and time is required during the Refit Process. Substantial and extensive Refit Support is unlimited, including ZOOM, voice/video meetings, and 3rd parties such as contractors involved in the refit. It also includes the Online Amel Book.

Note: 24/7 Amel Support is not available for Amels made before 1988, as, with few exceptions that I have seen, Amels older than 1988 have been modified by their multiple owners, and I am unable to determine the specific changes made by previous owners. Also, 1988 was a year of significant changes for Amel. Amel owners of Amels produced before 1988 can seek my Amel Support through Single Incident Support by the hour, but not all requests will be accepted. It will depend on the demand and the extent of modifications from the original design.
