It's probably impossible to buy the original owners manual. *But most
owners manuals have only the very basics, like what to clean your boat
with, how to change the oil, etc. *And aftermarket manual for the merc
year range that covers your boat will be most useful. *Other advice
like "how to get a stain out of my gelcoat" is best found on the
internet.

If you live anywhere where it freezes the single most important thing
you absolutely have to do is winterize your boat. *The engine will
retain cooling water from use and that water will freeze and crack
things like the engine block.

I hooked up my shop vac in reverse, and blew all the water out. Way
better than filling it with messy antifreeze.
