1991 Bluewater Coastal Cruiser

[Couples Therapy]

We have recently purchased a 54ft 1991 Bluewater Coastal Cruiser, we are searching to find an owners manual since there was not one with the boat. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I will link the site below, here is what it said and what I kind of suspected:

"Boat Owner’s Manual
Doug and Brenda Dawson have a library of thousands of old boat brochures, but do not have any owner’s manuals.

Most boats didn’t come with manuals
None of the boat builders produced an owner’s manual in the early years and only a few did in the more recent years; but they were very limited in information and quite generic to either the whole boat line or boating in general.

Some manufacturers put the motor manual and a few accessory or electronic information sheets in a drawer somewhere in an envelope. Some boat owners kept them and others didn’t.

If you are looking for a boat owner’s manual, we have many suggestions and tips for you.

Some of the boat builders now, produce a manual for their cruisers and yachts. Some of these manuals include wiring diagrams and plumbing information and sometimes more.

The majority of parts other than the fiberglass or aluminum, that make up a boat are made by outside suppliers or accessory manufacturers. The only items that boat builders create custom for their models are either made in house or locally; for example, canvas, upholstery and railings."
