Description of the Amel Euros 41 Sailboat
My Amel Euros 41 sailboat is equipped with a silicone antifouling, which significantly improves speed and reduces fuel consumption. The hull was painted two years ago, ensuring optimal protection. The swim platform is ideal for fishing, diving, and easy access to the dinghy. This platform was custom-made two years ago at a cost of 4700 euros.
The original cover is in perfect condition, rigid and without dents. The shrouds and other rigging components are also in perfect condition, with no changes to the original anchor points. I added extra equipment and replaced the ropes this year, with 100 meters of new 8mm rope.
The sails are in excellent condition: the reinforced genoa is two years old, the mainsail and mizzen are four years old, and the storm jib is in perfect condition. I also have a spinnaker and two other sails in good condition that I don't use.
All the interior floor coverings were replaced by a custom carpenter five years ago and are in perfect condition. I have done everything to maintain the boat's original condition.
Electronics and Equipment
Regarding electronics, my Amel Euros 41 has a Calypso system of ultrasonic wind equipment that works via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and wired connections. I have also replaced the water pumps and bilge pumps.
The boat is equipped with a Raymarine Axiom chartplotter and a redundant open CPN chartplotter via a Raspberry Pi with various navigation charts and battery sensors. It also has an integrated AIS and an internal Wi-Fi network for the entire boat (modem).
A system allows everything to operate at 220-12V both onshore and while sailing, with a Victron Multiplus inverter/charger 12V/300W/120A and a redundant Mastervolt charger for shore power. The solar panels were replaced last year.
The boat is also equipped with a radar, a depth sounder, a barometer, and a completed but uninstalled TV setup since I use the internet. LED lights are installed throughout the boat. Several hatches allow closing the navigation area.
I have 90 meters of chain purchased two years ago with a 25 kg Bruce anchor plus a spare 20 kg stainless steel grapnel anchor.
