PRICE : 85.000 Euro YEAR : 1983 Details Amel Maramu 46 Our ship was purchased in 1983 at the fair BOOT / Düsseldorf. We have taken this yacht from the first owner in 1995 in La Rochelle.

43 PRICE : Euro YEAR : 1983 Details Amel Maramu 46 Our ship was purchased in 1983 at the fair BOOT / Düsseldorf. We have taken this yacht from the first owner in 1995 in La Rochelle. There, various repairs were carried out by the yard AMEL. We then sailed into the Mediterranean through the Strait of Gibraltar to Spain / Portugal. There we have visited most countries and are ultimately stuck in Turkey / Greece (because it took us there liked it so much). A permanent mooring we never had. We have always maintained that we are in April to the boat and came in October / November back home. The boat stood then always in the winter months in a marina on land. In the last winter the boat was in Samos Marina in the water. But this was a exception. After we had been on board ever so long time, we have the ship so equipped that we were self-sufficient over a long period. Finally, the marinas with berthing fees have become very expensive. Not only for this reason, we have mainly anchored in bays etc. We therefore take a 28 kg bow anchor with 80 m chain 10 mm. 2 pieces corresponding spare anchor with short chain and ropes are of course available. All in all the ropes in all levels up to 100 m and Mooring also available in different dimensions. The fresh water tank holds 1,000 litres. The diesel tank 500 litres. So you're already pretty independent. Electricity is generated when the engine drive over 2 alternators, sailing or at anchor on a shaft generator, a wind generator and 3 solar panels. The fridge is a COOLMATIC HDC 120 and has 120 litres with a small freezer. It is powered by a 12 volt electrical system. 220 Volt requires no land connection, so there is a converter with 2000 watts (peak) are available. The washing machine is a EUMENIA 800 and has a volume of 3 kg. It is to use both in port and at sea (without the battery empty or drag). We cooked with gas. The semi gimballed stove has 3 burners and an oven. 3 gas-bottles are on board. The Maramu is a moderate long keel, which can be very stubborn when reversing. Since we have built a strong Vetus bow thruster, there is no longer a problem. The boat has no osmosis. Nevertheless, we made an osmosis prophylaxis few years ago. At sails are available: Genoa 1, Genoa 2 (furling jib), storm jib, battened size with ball bearing sliders, mizzen staysail-, Besan (also with ball bearing cars), blisters and spinnaker (with sock). The Furling system is from Reckmann and is hydraulically operated from the steering position. In addition to the mainmast there are right and left high baskets that provide for working on the mast (specially when reefing) a good and safe footing. In its day, existing Genoa winches I have replaced with larger 50 Lewmar winches. Are at the stern davits and the fact I drive our dinghy. This is 2.70 m long and made of aluminium. There is a tube fed and then it's up to 10 hp motorizable. I have a brand new bag in the basement. The 8 hp Yamaha brings us two persons (in calm weather) on the plane. That inside 3 cabins, is well known. The 2 toilets goes in each separate holding-tanks. The large 70 litre boiler is heated by both the machine as well as more than 220 V (in port). Hot water is available in the pantry and the two toilets in the showers. There is also a diesel heater. The Wind gauge with magnifier, echoes-lot with anchor watch, electronic compass and log are twice Sum designed by VDO and thus read both at the chart table and at the helm. The colour radar is a KOODEN MDC 406 F. Moreover, there is: GPS SHIPMATE RS 5300 C LOWE Electronic Receiver NASA CLIPPER NAVTEX FURONO Weather chart SHIPMATE RS 8000 VHF radio APELCO 510 VHF handheld radio Extended ALINCO amateur radio for marine radio FASTNET radio MAD 44 (Morse decoder) This is certainly not the most recent state. But all existing devices work. A weather chart is as long as you have an Internet network, certainly not necessary, but on the Atlantic determines a help. There are certainly a lot of paper cards available. But I have navigated in recent years with laptop and GPS mouse. The engine is a Perkins HP and has been running about 7000 hours. It is always very well maintained and we made each check. In 4500 hours we have overhauled the engine. This engine is not a turbocharged engine as opposed to today's engines, running at 1,700 tours from 6 to 6.5 knots (depending on water). Our engine needs almost no oil and always starts immediately. I have a motor diary, because you can understand what is happening with the machine in the past. In the last winter we overhauled the injector-pump and in this summer the starting-machine. The MARAMU is no ship that wins races, but a ship on which one can live well and always has a secure feeling. By the stearinghouse, where we have the right and the left solid Plexiglas panes, one is the bad weather hardly exposed. Even in Beaufort 9 what we had before occasionally, we were able to enjoy the benefits of the ketch rig over and reach our destination without any problems. We used this ship all the times always with 2 persons. Notice, that there are a lot of tools, spare-parts and robes on board. All these things we will leave on board, because we will finish the sailing definitely.
