Lost Owners Manu

[Dock Walker]

Hello,
I am the proud owner of a new to me 2016 25’ SC. So far so good, lots of questions but for starters, I lost the manual the previous owner was so kind to pass along to me. Is it possible to send one to me or can I download it?
Thanks!

We have a 2017 model and the manual that was supplied was for an R27. Very similar boat for the essential stuff. I think the most recent edition is viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1550#p11161

Dock Walker,

I saw your post for an 2016 R 25 owners manual. I am in the process of purchasing an 2016 R 25 SC here in Boston. Were you able to get a copy to download.

Thank you Chimo. That link got me what I needed. Flats, click on the link in Chimo’s post and it will be the manual.
Side note, for such an expensive boat the quality of the manual is like a high school project from the 70’s. Fittings have moved (or are not correct for my 25) and data is missing. My car came with like three books and about 500 pages of stuff.
No biggie, I will be able to learn all from the gurus here.

Yes, Manuals are basic and could use some information contained within the forum. Having said that you have to include the manuals from the various equipment as part of your overall documentation since so much of the equipment is "plug and play". Stove, Microwave, radio, TV, Engine, thrusters and right down to coffee maker all have manuals.

What would be nice is to see a frequently asked questions/solutions on many of the areas such as raw and fresh water, Toilet and electrical. Most of this info could be gleamed from the forum.

More good news about manuals. I will issue this warning about them:

The electrical schematics are incomplete, at least they are on my 2012 R27. On my boat, one of the battery switches is labeled “Thruster”. I had an issue and tried to resolve it by looking at the electrical schematic in the owner’s manual. Completely absent from the schematic is that the windlass is powered through the thruster battery switch. In fact, by looking at the schematic, one would never know the boat is equipped with a windlass.
