Fairline weekend 21 owner's manual

Does anyone know where I can get an owners manual/handbook for my boat ?
I have found a couple of sites via Google but they seem iffy so not keen on giving payment details.

Hi gyisland

As a weekender owner of many years I have never seen an owners manual / handbook such as you would get with a car, and I don't think Fairline provided anything similar ( I am willing to be corrected on this).
The only manuals I received when I purchased mine related to the engine and were from Volvo.
The only other item I have seen online was a scan of the original sales brochure for the weekender.
Due to the age of the boats I would have thought that an awful lot of the fittings will have been changed by previous owners after failure due to wear and tear or from updating equipment, therefore no longer original fittings.
I would advise holding off buying any online manuals if I were you.

Happy boating

Thanks BgB, I got an excellent volvo manual with the boat as a new engine was fitted years ago so that side of things is covered . I had hoped for something as the fuel tank needs to come out and even an idiot guide to simple things like sea toilet/sea cocks, and folding the canopy would have been handy.
