Rob, I can not imagine the pain of doing the whole keel deal! I feel for you. From under the floor boards I see the access board under the freezer....

Hi all, I am in the process of buying a used SM2000. Older versions (-2002) have a 75hp engine, but are interesting in sight of the price. Has anybody...
My SM is on the hard for the winter,I only have 110 ac available to me.When I run the onboard charger the breaker behind the distribution panel trips.Sometimes...
Pat: Hi, Where is your boat on the hard? That will help me know what type power you have. Do you have a step up transformer on your boat that steps 110 Volt...
Pat Wrote: "-- ever this charger would cost about $600.00. If anyone has a cheaper solution or advice as to how best to charge on the hard I'd appreciate it. ...

Just FYI-- I have forwarded www.AmelYachtOwners.com to our forum--in case you forget the address and haven't bookmarked it. I do web design commercially and...
Exactly. I think that 75 HP is a little less for a boat with 16to. Especially if you need sometimes to go against wind and current. Newer boats with weight...
The 100 Hp is the best choice for the SM-2000. I owned before the Santorin and when I was motoring against the wind you felt that the boat was underpowered....
