Rotax service manual- Found actual book to buy

[BobJohnson]

i know most of the basic maintenance on the Rotax (and Yamaha) engines is pretty straight forward, but I have been looking for a service manual since I bought the boat. Just like to have as much knowledge and information as I can.

Got a link to buy a service manual from the Chaparral boaters forum. Haven't bought it yet but will. Anyone ever seen this manual? If so, got an opinion as to its usefulness?

I have the 2016/200hp. Does this manual work for that year?

@Floyd I don't have the book yet (haven't ordered it yet either) but yes, it will cover your 2016 200 hp motor. It is for current models and covers all 3 HP versions from what I can see. 150, 200 and 250.
Perhaps @Ron@Scarab or @ScarabMike are familiar with the manual and know of how detailed it is.
@blackhawkpilot -> I know you have been as frustrated as I have been about the quality of the manuals that came with our boats initially. This might, take care of that....

It will work, but you have to be able to understand it.

Just ordered one. Thanks for the heads up Bob!

Before you guys go off and spend $110 on a book, I posted the PDF file here a few months back.

I see where you posted an "operators Manual" but not a "Service Manual". This thread is a link to a service manual. I received an operators manual with my boat. Did you post a copy of the "Service Manual somewhere that I did not see?

Oh, my bad, @WaltB, you're right. 2 different manuals. Sorry about that.
