Not Mine, but has lots of goodies. Usual disclaimer, I have no connection and don't personally know anything about it. Volvo Diesel Inboard.

Not a bad looking boat.

The trailer is very nice but I don't think it's was originally made for a C25. To me the bunks are not properly supporting the front part of the hull (too far apart).

I have one, pretty good so far, but try to avoid the 2000 series (2001,2002,2003..), see http://www.info-center-online.com/boat/r_volvopenta2000eng.htm

The newer ones like mine (MD2010) are different engine and don't have such problems.

I don't know this one, but check here http://www.info-center-online.com/boat/r_volvopentaeng.htm if you find something useful.

I would ask the PO for the log of the problems if he have it (at least in memory)

Thanks for the link. He does have a log. The more I read about it the more Yanmar gets better!
