Re: Problème de D&G océanis 45

Bonjour Jean Marc, let me use english in order to catch as many people as possible. The D&G system has been notoriously problematic for Beneteau. At least one boat was lost (Sense 50) when then...

Re: Yanmar 4JH4-TE Catastrophic failure

Dear Hunterdog, has Yanmar given you a probable cause of the failure i.e. is it something that happens "normally" with age? What year was it manufactured and how many hours did you have on the...

Re: Beneteau Sense 50

Dear In the Mood,

Re: Yanmar 4JH4-TE Catastrophic failure

Much agree that the Beneteau - Yanmar- ZF marriage à trois is really bad. Ended up replacing both VCU and TCU harnesses on the Dock&go. Fingers crossed on working reliably now.

Anyhow, how do you...

Re: Beneteau Sense 50

I agree ZZ and it's actually quicker to pull up and down with the driving belt out. Locking it is trickier though as you have to have a functioning Noval electrical panel. Do you guys have the...

Re: Beneteau Sense 50

I have a Sense 55 s/n 40 (2014). It has the Noval electrical sliding door. Not great I know but still working after 5 years. Requires constant lube to prevent awful noise. Are you thinking of...

Re: Experience with Riggers in Grenada,Trinidad and Curacao

Can you please give me an approximate monthly cost for storing a 55’ mono haul sailboat in Grenada? About 6-9 months. Some maintenance would be done as well

Thanks/Robert

Re: Selden Rod kicker gas strut replacement

Dear Inspectr, great video thanks! I noted the part number of the 2500N Danish gas stut you used but does the gas strut differ from one boat to another? Mine is a Beneteau Sense 55 and oil is...
