Amel
Book



The Amel Book Written by an Experienced Amel Owner:
I wrote this 400-page "Amel Book." I have it color-printed on 100-pound (271gsm) gloss cardstock and 100-pound (271gsm) matte paper. It is a 3-hole punched and inserted in a custom 3-ring binder with custom tabs. This book is an operation and maintenance reference guide for many Amel models, with most of the content about Amel Super Maramus and considerable content on Amel 54 & Amel 55, with enough Amel 50 content to be worthwhile. Likewise, the owners of older Amels will see many things similar to their models and the Amel Book. The Amel Book Supplement Files contain over 1000 diagnostic and how-to procedures. The Amel Book differs from the Amel Owners Manual or Amel Users Guide. The Amel Book assumes that you are completely familiar with each of these and the manufacturer's manuals for installed devices.

My Amel Book is an experienced owner's guide that will help you through the most common maintenance and repair procedures and many operations procedures. Many Yacht School clients participate in updates to the book by submitting ideas, photos, challenges, and solutions, which I incorporate in updates and in the next printing of the Amel Book. This client participation results in as many as 100 actual Amel operator experiences, resulting in the best and most complete source of operation and maintenance instructions and experiences available to the owners of Amel Yachts.

There is always a new printing of the Amel Book available because it is printed at least four times a year. New pages are added with each printing, and other pages are updated. As the Super Maramu and Amel 54 get older, we are discovering things that have never needed attention before. The newest Amel Book has a growing quantity of information for the A55 and A50. The book includes over 300 "Pearls of Wisdom" from Bill Rouse and other "jewels," like the recommendations for lubricants, rust mitigation, and cleaning products. It also includes several historical "Amel Factoid" pages. 

NEW Online Amel Book This 400-page Online Amel Book subscription has special pricing for Amel Owners Yacht School clients and Amel Yacht Owners Group members. It is updated weekly and has links to over 6,500 individual files regarding your Amel. These files (Supplement) are stored in the Cloud and require access to the Internet. See a Sample of the Online Book here. This subscription includes access to Discounts on Amel OEM Parts and Services. From a very experienced SM owner: The online book is very, very good.  "The embedded links are great.  I'm repacking my rudder currently and have learned a few new things. The very best feature IMHO is the search function and the helpful display of search result text thumbnails--In 19 years of sailing and working on Amels, MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED." 

NEW Amel Book Supplements are available online to all Amel Book owners: These are different than the Amel Book. This is all of the Amel information I have acquired and compiled over 15 years. I have made available over 6,500 individual files (over 3 gigs of information) for download. If printed, this would be more than 20,000 pages. New Book Supplements are available immediately after I produce or acquire them. Here is an example of an Amel Book Supplement: Replace Motor Mounts and Align Engine SM
