They want you to end up at the dealer that’s why

Also looking for Ace 300 Shop Manual.
I wish to get the 300 ACE shop manual as well.. I wanted to have it included with my custom boat order. My Chaparral dealer said it is not available. The owners manual has many errors and omissions and in any case is no substitute for a shop manual. For example it calls for drown mode for distributing storage oil in the cylinders when winterizing but does not say how to do it. The old method of holding the throttle crank open is impossible as that part is totally enclosed. Woe is us Scarab Glastron & Chaparral Rotax 300 owners! LOL

I have a copy of the 300 ACE manual but to large to attach. There is a FB Chaparral Group you can join to get a copy of it.

Thanks - It is for the 300 ACE model of Rotax that I wish to obtain. Someone said it is available on the FB Chaparral group, however I have not been able to find it there.

Thanks. But when I find the files list it includes several manuals but not the ACE 300 - closest one I see is a 1999 Chap Owner with Wiring.
This is on the Chaparral Boat Owners Club - Is there another FB group out there that I am missing? with a slightly different name or something?

Looking for a shop manual on the jet pump and reverse bucket. The one for the Rotax covers engine items only. Any help would be appreciated. TIA.

I do not believe my reverse bucket is locking up in the forward position.

2017 Scarab 195 HO, 250 HP Wake Edition. Nearest service center is 3 hours away.

Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum, my name is Fred and I live in France in the Alps. I've owned a Scarab 215 Impulse HO since 2018 (excuse me for my English ...) I hope I understood the rules of the forum correctly
I mainly navigate on the lakes : Léman (swiss), Bourget, Annecy (not far from the Mont Blanc massif)Thank you for the quality of this forum, I really like reading you and I learned a lot for the maintenance of my boat !! We are very few in France to own jetboats but I'm happy to have bought this type of boat !

Hi Dean,
I saw the document you uploaded to Note, I wanted to print it but I no longer have access to it today, would it be possible to send it to me? This is exactly what I was looking for for the maintenance of my Scarab. Thank you

Thank you again, yes this manual will be very useful to me! I would put some photos and if ever someone from the forum comes on vacation in our region, it's with pleasure that I will make you discover our lakes! (they're not as big as your home, but there is a bit of fun!)
Bye
Fred
