We bought a used 1976 25'foot Oday sailboat from a hurricane salvage group. The manual is gone. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this info? Donna

O'Day 25 Manual
Donna, I haven't been able to find an actual hard copy yet, but I've found several scanned copies of varying quality online. The O'Day unofficial website has one at the link I've posted below. I bought my '76 O'Day 25 this summer and generally have been able to learn everything I've needed online, especially through this forum. I wouldn't worry too much if you can't find an original manual. Happy sailing! Eric

Sailnet List
I would also recommend joining the O'Day mail list provided by Sailnet. It's been a big help to me. Out of curiosity, what was damaged on the boat?

O'Day 222 manual
Jon, Below is the link to the 222 brochure. To be honest, I'm not sure if there is a separate user manual. One would think so, but since the 25 brochure has operating and rigging instructions, it seems like it doubles as an owner's manual. Maybe some other owners can shed light on this. Eric

P.S.
Another option is to contact D&R Marine at 508-644-3001. If anyone has an original owner's manual on file it's probably them. Their website is posted below.

apologies to all
It turns out the manual I have is for a Macgregor 25 not an O Day as requested. Thanks Herb for pointing out that technicality, and my apologies to the rest of you for getting your hopes up. Now, if anyone wants a copy of a Mac 25 manual...

Good intentions and all
No problem, your heart was in the right place. The first pic I thought "Well, OK, he threw in a Mac picture. Maybe he's a fan." Then, I saw the others. But, if nothing else, you sure brought the O'Day 25 owners out of the woodwork, huh? Like cockroaches we are. Now, if I could just find that many Coronado 35 owners out there!!
