Default Volvo spare part on board

wrote:
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


A water pump impellor and a spare injector or two would not go amiss. Also
water hoses.
