I recently purchased a 25' 1989 Wellcraft Sportsman 250 Cuddy Cabin with a 5.7 Mercruiser Stern Drive. Does anyone know where I can get my hands on an owner's manual? Secondly, can anyone tell me which battery is the cranking battery and which one is the deep cycle?

On my 250 Sportsman the cranking battery is on the left hand side as you look back down towards the rear , from the cabin. The battery isolator switch would be set to position "2". At least that's how mine is set up. I got a Seloc manual from a company here in Ireland, online called Marine parts direct. It covers the Mercruiser engines and stern drives from 1964 to 1991. But there are other, some say better manuals available out there, but I have no complaints.
