"Hello all,
I realise coming into this year old conversation could be somewhat strange though sharing advice is always beneficial..
Our B43 had her port large saloon window repaired under warranty after it developed a gap and obvious leak. The boat…"

HOW IS SEAKNOTS GOING IN THE NEW YEAR?
I am aware it is the middle of very cold winter in your hemisphere, even so the last post I have viewed was written in May 2021.In Sydney. Australia we are in the middle of what is developing as a normal Summer after a pretty miserable 2022 and I have been looking forward to the regular updates, usually from the other side of the world.I hope all is well with the Sea Knots structure, in particular the Beneteau 40-43 division and the quiet period is simply climate induced.Regards and may we all…See More
"Happy Holidays to you and yours.
Happy to hear its working properly."
"Thanks James,
I finally obtained a copy of the manual and confirmed the LED light on the top was an indeterminate red/orange, flashing.

"10-11 year old battery charger supplied by boat builder with questionable operational characteristics! Personally, I would just replace the 40amp charger with a new "5 year guarantee" charger for peace of mind."
DOLPHN 40 AMP BATTERY CHARGER
Hello all.The Dolphin 40amp battery charger in my 2011 43 is charging well, EXCEPT the cooling fan is cycling on and off every 20 seconds or so. Volts and amps are correct although there is red light top and centre flashing red, does not look happy.It seems as if the thermostat controlling the fan is not functioning correctly as the unit is not even warm.I cannot locate the Beneteau supplied manual, any clues as to the fault.Regards,Bilgolabands (Liberte)See More

"Thanks for all your comments my friends at Seaknots.
The halyard has been rerun without passing through the small stainless steel eye, as seen easily in the pic provided by Chris on 17th August.
All furling now takes place without any undue effort,…"
"Hello all,
Our 2010 Oceanis 43 recently underwent a 10 year rigging replacement. The boat was returned with the spinnaker halyard led through the stainless choker attached to the top of the torestay hounds fitting; we feel as a result of that the…"

On my 43 the VIN is on one of the hull floors (transverse ribs under the floor boards) adjacent to the stove.

"The 54 hp Yanmars initially had a hand priming pump on top of main fuel filter. This pump had tendency to allow air to seep causing difficult starting issues particularly after fuel filter changes.On our engine, Yanmar authorized removal of the…"
"1) It sounds like the diesel pump is not working. You should hear a ticking sound from the pump when you turn the key for priming. The pump is located forward on the starboard side of the engine.
2) You can try to increase the waterflow. Check the…"

I saw your question about the wiring in the B43 cockpit table. Our's is a US built and has a socket on top of the table for a lamp. There is a switch on the front of the table tha turns the lamp on/off. I hope this helps.
