Default Volvo spare part on board

Thanks for the feedback.
I am located in Rothesay, N.B.
I just called at Seamaster 902-468-2029. they switched me to Diana Jason.
She was not available, I then left a voice message with the purpose of my
call.

I am looking at buying a new boat with a M2030 Volvo diesel engine.
The situation in the Canadian Eastern Maritime is that the only Volvo
dealer makes his living with lobster fishermen and carry no part for
small diesel. If I buy that boat equipment with a Volvo diesel engine I
will have to carry parts on board. Not to mention that I will require
that shop manual and learn how to use it.
I would appreciate to receive some guide lines from Volvo owners as to
what to carry on board for spares and what to train myself for
maintenance and emergency repairs. TIA


I just happened to be at SeaMasters (Dartmouth, NS) parts dept yesterday,
when the guy in front of us was trying to get Volvo parts. Seems like
Seamasters does carry some selection. Contact them.

driveway north of the McDonalds restaurant.
