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 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 the majority of the content pertaining to Amel Super Maramus and Amel 54s. Owners of Santorin, Amel 55, and Amel 50 will find many common items. The Amel Book is not a replacement for the Amel Owners Manual or Amel Users Guide. The Amel Book assumes that you are completely familiar with each of these, as well as, the manufacturer's manuals for installed devices.
common maintenance and repair procedures, as well as, many operations procedures. Many of my 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. These new or revised updated pages are downloadable online at the CLIENT ACCESS tab. 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. With each new printing, new pages are added 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.

It is updated weekly and has links to over 2,500 individual files regarding your Amel. These files (Supplement) are stored in the Cloud and require the Internet to access them.
