Hello everyone!

I'm looking for a shop manual on this boat. I found the "owners manual" but that is just very basic. If someone can point me to a shop manual or something with more detail that would be appreciated.

thanks

What is the engine package on the boat?

Good question, I just bought the boat on ebay (boat angel charity) and I don't know what kind of engine it has - do the 17' have that many engine options?

yeah that's the one! I'm on the road here and I wrote fourwinns and they were not too helpful.

Anyhow, any pointers on where to get a good engine manual would be appreciated.

thanks!

The internet has many downloads available & very easy to source.
We still need to know what engine you have! :wink:

Looks like the deal I got for $1200. Just needed a new dist cap and battery.

There are no pictures - is there even an engine? :shock:

It is probably a 3.0 VP looking at the info I can find....

She agreed to $1600. Going to pick it up right now. Yeah, it's a Horizon 180 with a 3.0 Volvo (The VIN ends in 00, I won't have the title til tonight she was busy at her horse farm). Looks mint mechanical wise, no dings, scratches or faded vinyl. CD/sat marine radio, sony marine speakers, VDO gauges, safety kit, etc. $1600 cash. Best $1600 I've ever spent.
