I have a 1986 268 Sundancer.Did SeaRay even make the 268 in 1986?
When I went looking for a manual for my '87.....I contacted them and they told me they didn't make many in '87 and then went into full production of the 268 in 1988.
So were any made in '86? :huh:
Any luck yet?? I am still in need of a manual or my sd..I am in the process of buying a 1986 Sun Ray 268. I have seen the owner's manual on board but need current owner's permission to remove the manual from the boat. Will let you know when I have a photographed copy. Let me know if you still need one.
Copy? Please?I have an owner's manual for our 1985 260 SD. I would be happy to copy it in .pdf and send to you. Thanks
I do have the Owner's Manual in PDF form. Unfortunately, it is to large to upload on this site. Give me an email address to sent it to...Any luck yet?? I am still in need of a manual or my sd..
Sent you a pm with my email. Really could use a copy of this. Thanks!
Do you still have that pdf? I could use it for sure!Done!

Hi I would love to have a copy of what you have for my 88 268 sundancer, please please that d ba awsome of you ....Pkazakos01@gmail.com, my name is patricia... trish, I love my boat... thanks if you can... only 5 year old message I know...Hi there I've an 89 268Da the same as your boat mostly . What engine drive combination do you have . I have the original manual for the boat as weĺ as all the peripherals like water heater,stove,wiring diagram ,stern drive, etc . The manual are not repair manuals but are still helpful. I can scan them if you would like and send you the files VIA email if you like. Just send me an address . I kind of wish our site had a section to hold manuals for reference . I'm sure you have a lot to go over in your boat as I did when we bought it . Take your time and enjoy the process it will give you peace of mind knowing what you have going forward as a baseline . Some first things to check and replace right away if you are at all unsure of maintenance past
All fluids
Impeller
Risers and manifolds especially in salt
All hoses in cooling circuit
Exhaust tubes and shutters
Bellows , global exhaust and shift cable
If it's been out of use for awhile really baby it for the first 20hrs or so and check things often .
Best of fortune with the new boat
