Boats are basically a cottage industry compared to cars. They make a few
hundred or thousand of a particular model and the drive train is a buy and
drop in arrangment. They cost as much as a car because the volume is so
low.

Has a more detailed user/service manual ever been available?Rinker tells
on the phone that they have so many boat models that it would be hard to
offer more model specific service manuals to owners.IMHO if they can sell
a boat at price of a car then why not offer more detailed manuals?
