Need help in finding a SERVICE manual

[TomC2021]

Anyone know how I can get a service manual for 2021 AR250? Have tried several times, only to end up with another OWNER’S manual. Thanks in advance

They haven't been released yet by Yamaha for most if not all the 21's.

Thanks!

Service manuals can be purchased from Yamaha Owner's Hub website:

YAMAHA MANUAL STORE

We bought ours for 2021 195s a little while ago and was exactly what we needed!

For the 2021 AR250 they still dont have the service manual, just the owners manual. Would really love to have the service manual already.

Sorry! I feel your pain....we can't get any replacement seats (bow seat back came with a slit in it ) for our boat but seems all other models have replacement parts

I bought a Service Manual for our 24 222SE from this link about a month ago.
YAMAHA BOATS OWNER'S MANUALS (yamaha-owners-manuals.com)

This might be the better link, @sastocky ...

that gets you to the page where you can choose either an owner's manual or a service manual. Their site makes it hard to find sometimes.

Do you have any opinion on the printed vs the 30day/60day/1year options. Is digital better than paper? If I buy the digital, do I need all three 30day/60day/1year options?

 

[Coult45]

For me, it's worth the price to have the printed copy available any time I need it. I can take notes in it, I can reference it every time I do some regular maintenance so I don't forget any important steps, I can dig into it four years from now when something weird is going on with the boat, etc...

Does the paper copy have the 30 day/60 day/ and 1 year info all together? If so, I’m in.

You mean like this...? Yes.

No…like this. There are specific manuals for those periods. I do t know what to expect as I have never seen a Yamaha Boat Service manual.

That’s how long you have access to it online. I just bought my service manual for my ar240. Expensive, yes, but I’ll always have it when I need it.

 

[Coult45]

I’m pretty sure that means how long you get to use the online manual. For $14.99, you get access to it for 30 days. For $79.99 you can use it for a year.

The paper manual has everything you need…for as long as you own that boat.

I can’t believe I didn’t get that. Thank you for the clarification and patience. Paper copy it is.

Really though, if you want, you can throw the paper copy out after 30/60/365 days ? ?

If you really wanted to, you may be able to buy the 30-day version, print off the entire thing, and then throw it in a binder, but I think after all that work and time, you may be questioning whether or not you saved anything with the effort. I also wouldn't even consider this if you only have access to an inkjet printer. Laser printer, or else it's even more of a bite out of your time.

Paper copy received today. Thanks all.
