    I'm looking for as much OEM data as possible about Pacemakers, mostly in the spirit of pre-ownership research. I've found plenty of good secondhand data and reviews, now I'm specifically looking for literal OEM data like hull diagrams, deck layouts, sales materials, etc. I've found conflicting secondhand information and rather than go point by point, I just want to find original info to help clarify things.

    Unfortunately my understanding is that Pacemaker changed hands at least once in the last 40 years and quite a bit of paper documentation might have been lost in a warehouse fire at one point!

    Generally speaking I've got my eye on the 55 - 65 foot range. I'm looking for a project boat (aren't they all?). I've seen interesting listings that go back to boats from the last 1950's through to more modern in the about the 1970's. As a remote shopper "just go look at it" is significantly further down the line from the research I'm doing now, so info like hull material by year, exact differences between the 57 and 62MY, etc, are all super helpful.

    Can anyone point me at more info? Other threads? Sites with PDFs of original sales material? Microfiche (ha)?

    Thanks!

    If you call the Mariners Museum in Hampton Virginia their library may be able to help. They have on of the largest collections of technical drawings and other important data, by manufacturer, in the country.
