We actually borrowed this book from the library several times before we realized we couldn't live with out it! :) It is very informative with clear pictures and precise directions. Very well put together.
Excellent Manual

Very good detail. With this book and a little mechanical know how YOU can do it!!! First time I ever took an outdrive off. Changed the gimbal bearing and bellows, etc and all is well.
It is a nice and useful book for amateur boaters ...

I have just bought this book a couple of weeks ago and I have almost finished reading it. The book aims the amateur boaters who have basic mechanical skills and who are willing to learn their Volvo Penta engines like myself. It is a handbook which should be kept in the boat for emergency situations together with all other necessary tools and spare parts required to fix the boat. The print quality is nice and easily readable however I would prefer if there were more pictures and photos in the book which I believe is the only drawback. For those of you who want to play with your engine at a basic level, I would suggest you to buy this book.
