My son-in-law just purchased a 1975 Yukon Delta 31ft. Combo Cruiser. There are no schematics for the boat. How might he acquire what he needs?

I have a 73' that is 23 ft long and a 78' that is 25 ft long. It would be great to find out how to get a spare tire or flybridge for both. The old site for the forum isn' around anymore and it would be great to find sources.

Francis and Bud Mills owned the Yukon Delta co. He died in
02 and son wanted to take over, but nothing came of it.

GregThere are two ways to get the Yukon trailer wheels,
you can find them at trailer park supply areas that
have taken off the wheels after setting up the mobile
home. If your abilities at raising fender height,
then you can replace all the wheels with the 14" size.

The other way is to buy them from the manufacturer who
has just started remaking them...but they are
expensive

I have copies of Yukon Delta sales brochures and instruction sheets.
My wife won't let me just send these off, but if you are interested in Yukons, here is the information. A lot of work went into restoring torn, water destroyed and worn areas with many hours of work until they are
a nicely presented work. I have a refaced copy of the floor plan for the 31 3/4
and 25 3/4 foot Yukon $4.00 each. They have the
interior layout, a detailed depiction of _layer_s and
weights of fiberglass as well as upper deck thickness
and what it was fabricated with. I have the
refaced/restored copy of the brochure for the 1982
Yukon...$12.00. This shows interior pictures,
exterior pictures de_script_ions and offerings in the 25
3/4 and 31 3/4 Yukons. Both the black and white floor
plans and the color brochure show the flybridge.
Other original brochure copies:
Heater controls:
Dometic L.P. gas & electric refrigerator instructions for use. $2.00
" " " " " " installation instructions $1.00
Thetford Electra Magic toilet; owners manual $3.00
" " " " " " operating instructions $3.00
Porta Potti operating instructions $2.00
Wall Heater lighting and operating instructions $2.00
Parts catalog for Volvo Aquamatic 280 $15.00
Brochures:
Durable 25 foot Houseboat $6.00
Mark II 25 3/4 foot cruiser $6.00
25 foot brochure describing boat and uses, showing fold down walk around planks $4.00
Cruisable-Liveable-Affordable-Towable Yukon Delta brochure $4.00

There are no shop manuals or wiring manuals available.
If you need the Volvo Penta stern drive repair manual
1968-91 by Seloc...They are avilable in some boat
shops for $37.00 or I can sell you one of mine in
almost new shape for $25.00 plus $5.00 shipping.
There were Yukons ranging in size from 23 feet to 38
feet. I have 2 in my collection. 25 3/4 and 31
3/4. No I did not make up the 3/4...it is on the
black and white page. I just sold my 23 footer last week.
I hope the Yukon you bought was covered when not in
use. If not, dry rot of the four corner 2x2,s and
some runner supports along the gunnel will have dry
rot due to water traveling along a sloping path.
Good luck on your work.
Greg
