This page includes copies of the
1977 & 1979 Chrysler 26 Owner's Manuals, as well as detailed drawings,
equipment lists, and instructions for raising the mast. I attempted to
maintain the original look and feel of these documents as much as possible.
Consequently, most of these documents look better printed out than they do on
screen.

Al McMillan has graciously taken
the time to scan an old copy of the 1979 Owner's Manual. He attempted to
maintain the original look and feel of this document as much as possible.
The drawings and equipment lists comprising the manual were too time
consuming to convert to .html format, so they were simply scanned and saved
as .jpg files. For your benefit, I've included the page numbers, descriptions,
and file sizes. To view the individual pages of the manual, simply click on
the descriptions in the table below.
Please keep in mind that these .jpg files are fairly large, so be patient
while they are loading.
