I was given a 1981 SRV 255 Sedan Bridge. I can't find a service manual to fix this thing. I was told the motors worked about two years ago. The fella passed away about then and the boat sat until I got it yesterday. It needs new upholstery and decking - I can do all of that. I need a mechanics service book to go through and learn each system, identify wiring issues and especially see if the boat will start. Can anyone tell me how to determine if the engines are in working order? I was told the engines have to be in a bucket before they can be started because they are water cooled. Okay, how much water or buket size and how do I start it or just turn the engines over to make sure they aren't froze up?All assistance welcome - especially where to find the service manual. Thanks
