Smile New Mariah Owner - Need some help

Hello All Mariah owners,

I purchased a 1996 Z240 late last fall and have only driven it 3 times since. All 3 trips were great, but still learning characteristics of this boat. I have no owners manual to help learn functions and have looked on the usual ebay & amazon sites for this if was available. Could anyone point me in direction to possibly find one? Second, seems the lowrance depth finder does not work properly, makes ocassional clicking noise, blinks and may show some depth I don't trust. Has anyone had this issue with theirs?

Thx,
Baldeagle1

    I believe the issue with manuals is covered in your welcome letter from Admin but failing that you can read this sticky.

    As for the depthfinder, it's a common problem that has been addressed many times here on this site. Its either the transducer has come loose and needs to be refixed to the hull or the sounder itself is faulty.
