From memory it is hardly worth the print ink .the wiring diagram [the only part which may have been useful] was so badly printed as to be illegible. Geoff

Is there something in particular you are interested in?  I have one with me...nothing special.

Wiring diagram sounds good, also text for the comic drawings on the DC panel please (yes I did figure them out by a combination of guessing and trial+error, but still). Also the RCD page, if it's in there.

I have the manual and took pics of the wiring section.  I realized I have the us version but wiring may be the same. The quality if the manual isn't great  as it looks like a copy of a copy.  I only have my phone and the site won't let me upload pics.  If you send me a message I'll try and get the pics to you that way.  I'm trying...

Ok - borrowed a laptop to see if I can upload the pics.  Couldn't add then in PM either.   It looks like there are 3 pages of diagrams that may be of use.  Let me know if there are others you are looking for.

Thanks njsail for all your effort. Sadly I seem to have a different panel from you! Mine says "Panel 16" on the DC one and "Panel 230" on the AC side.

Still hoping someone might find the manual. I'll shoot Bavaria an email, although perhaps it isn't on the internet because they never PDF'd it.

Good luck - it was worth a shot.  It's a lot of fun behind that panel.

Hi all

NJSAIL - you may have the answer to a problem I posted back in 2014. I've got a B34/2001 with a 420 panel and the copy of a copy of a copy for mine was probably a copy of a copy of yours. The quality seems so much worse. Is there any way you can scan all the wiring diagrams into a pdf using a scanner? I appreciate that it may not be possible but if it's easy, I sure would appreciate it.   :tbu

Cheers
ATB

Much as I love my Bavaria Ocean 40, the wiring behind the panel is a total nightmare. To make that even worse, the boat was an exhibit boat in 2000 in London, and a  lot of the Raymarine electronics were installed there by techs that made all wires so short that you can not open the panel without some of the connectors pull out. No doubt they all worked for Lucas :-) :))
