Vessel: Southerly 110 2006, based in HovĂĄs Marina (South of Gothenburg) 2 ELLEBOGEN 75 (Ref. 128270-08341) and 2 ELLEBOGEN 100 (Ref. 128377-08351) The main mission of a boat’s engine mounts is to secure the engine seat by isolating the vibrations generated by the engine itself and absorb any shock and vibration when the ship is […]
Vessel: Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 40.3 2006, sailing in Greek waters in 2021. The main mission of a boat’s engine mounts is to assure the engine seat by isolating the vibrations generated by the engine itself and absorb any shock and vibration when the ship is  sailing. In addition to the noise and little comfort on board, the […]
On the Gulf of Biscay, ranging from Asturias to the Basque country, the “Galernas” are feared by fishermen and sailors for centuries. These sudden and violent storms break out normally in muggy days with a peaceful atmosphere, when suddenly, with no apparent warning signs, there is an abrupt turn of the wind – from west […]
This article is associated to a precedent article that deals about the symptoms of how to detect when an flexible engine mount of a marine engine has to be replaced. On this article we are putting more weight on the reasons and process of degradation of the elastomeric compound in marine engine mounts. Knowing how and […]
This article concerns specifically the users of boats that do not have a thrust bearing in their boat. This is to say, when the thrust of the propeller “pushes” the engine through the anti vibration mounts. In this case the marine engine mounts have to push the boat and resist the thrust forces of the […]
Due to the several questions from Ellebogen users, we make an article to explain the reasons why the propeller shaft has to be fixed 48 hours after the installation of the marine engine mounts. Vibrations on a marine engine can occur for several reasons or origins, engine unbalance, incorrect stiffness of flexible engine mounts, wear […]
Mechanical fastening that is exposed to vibration and thermal expansions and contractions, has to be correctly studied and selected. A loose nut can create damages on the stud and eventually break it. Ellebogen® Marine engine mounts incorporate Nord Lock washers. The Nord lock system uses tension instead of friction (traditional systems). Therefore the biggest the […]
Vessel: GibSea 282 -1987 2 ELLEBOGEN 75 (Ref. 128270-08341) and 2 ELLEBOGEN 100 (Ref. 128377-08351) The main mission of a boat’s engine mounts is to assure the engine seat by isolating the vibrations generated by the engine itself and absorb any shock and vibration when the ship is  sailing.

The main mission of the marine engine mounts is to assure the engine seat by isolating the vibrations generated by the engine itself, and absorb any shock and vibration when the ship is sailing. The anti vibration properties of the marine engine mounts are essential to prevent engine damage and to improve the comfort of the ship’s […]
