Where to buy service manuals? 1999 Sea Ray 210

[momo2000]

Last month I purchased a 1999 Sea Ray 210, with only 151 hours on it. Runs well and like new, but I?d like to ?be prepared? and have a Service Manual so I can do some troubleshooting when things go wrong. I have seen just the service manuals for the Mercruiser I/O, but none for the rest of the boat. Questions:
#1. Is there one available for the entire boat? If yes, where?
#2. If yes, then do I purchase one for the boat and then another for the Mercruiser I/O?
#3. Any recommendations on the brand/publisher of the manuals?

Suggestions/links/advice appreciated.

i've never had a manual for my boat. but i got an old boat. you may be able to get one from your mfg. depends on if they put one out. i don't get the feeling all do. everything on the boat most likely are parts made by others, sea ray made your boat, mercruiser marinized your engine (most likely a chevy) and made your drive. but gauges, seats, glass, mirrors, horns, cleats, switches, lights, blowers, etc. are made by someone else. perko, attwood are a couple of mfgs that appear on my boat.

get the oem service manual for your engine drive package. anything other than oem is a copy of the oem at best.

Maybe.....but it will really be filled with boater safety

#2. If yes, then do I purchase one for the boat and then another for the Mercruiser I/O?

Nope just a manual for the I/O is just about all you will need

#3. Any recommendations on the brand/publisher of the manuals?

It is going to sound expensive but........ get a Mercruiser Factory manual
