Just saw another post wherein the poster had lost a manual. I use a
three-ring,
nylon covered, zippered binder to store all the various manuals. I found
the
binder in a trash can at school, but they are available where ever school
supplies are sold. I keep large manuals in document protectors, and use
pencil
holders made for binders to hold the small manuals (gps, radio, depth
finder,
etc.) This stays on the boat, except in the rare instance I need to bring
a
manual home. I also keep the boat registration, trailer registration, etc
in the
same binder.

Works great, and I've never misplaced a manual.

I kept mine in plastic sleeves inside a plastic accordion folder, with tabs
on the sleeves marked with what it contained. I had the sleeves grouped by
general category.

The folder had a flap and cord that kept things secure.

Being organized sure made the manuals easy to locate when needed.


The nice thing about the zippered nylon cover is that the whole thing is fairly
waterproof, and I can throw it in cuddy without worrying that anything will fall
out. Of course, if I had a boat with cabinets, etc, like any *decent* sized
boat, I wouldn't have to worry about the 'throwing around' capabilities!
