ADVANTAGE BOATS, INC.
LIMITED WARRANTY

 

1. What This Warranty Covers And For How Long:
ADVANTAGE BOATS, INC. ("ADVANTAGE") warrants each ADVANTAGE boat against substantial defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of three (3) years from the date of purchase by the original retail purchaser. ADVANTAGE will, at no charge, repair the boat during the warranty period provided it is returned in accordance with the terms of this warranty and the conditions hereof.

2. Warranty Conditions:
This express limited warranty is extended by ADVANTAGE to the original retail purchaser of the boat only and is not assignable or transferable to subsequent purchasers or lessees. This is the complete warranty for the ADVANTAGE boat and ADVANTAGE assumes no obligation or liability for additions or modifications to this warranty unless made in writing and signed by an officer of ADVANTAGE.

3. What This Warranty Does Not Cover:
This warranty does not cover the following: (a) defects or damage resulting from the use of the boat in other than its normal and customary manner; (b) defects or damage from misuses, accident or neglect; © defects or damage from improper operations, maintenance, adjustment, or any alteration or modification of any kind; (d) a board repaired, without ADVANTAGE's written authorization, in such a manner as to adversely affect performance or prevent adequate inspection and testing to verify any warranty claim; (e) any boat used for racing, or used for rental or commercial purposes; (f) any boat operated contrary to ADVANTAGE's written instructions or in violation of federal or state laws; (g) defects or damage to any trailer used to transport the boat or to any articles, fixtures, furnishings, parts, accessories or property contained in, incorporated into, or attached to the boat that was not manufactured by ADVANTAGE in its manufacturing facility such as, but not limited to, engine, outdrive, controls and propeller; (h) defects or damage to any part of the boat that is warranted in writing by manufacturers other than ADVANTAGE (copies of such warranties will be provided on request); and (i) defects or damage to chrome, gel coat or anodized finishes.

4. How To Get Warranty Service:
If something goes wrong within the warranty period and you believe that the warranty should be activated, contact the ADVANTAGE dealer from whom the boat was purchased and arrange a mutually convenient time for a dealer service representative to inspect the boat at the dealer's facility or location at which you took delivery of the boat or at another mutually agreed site. If the dealer cannot correct the problem you should contact ADVANTAGE directly in writing outlining your grievance at the following address:

ADVANTAGE BOATS, INC.
Customer Relations
1000 N. Lake Havasu Avenue
Lake Havasu City, AZ 86403

After reviewing the written grievance, ADVANTAGE will, at its option, send a representative to the dealer's site from which you purchased the boat to inspect the defects or damage and to authorize repair locally. If the defects or damage cannot be corrected locally in the sole opinion of ADVANTAGE, the original retail purchaser will prepay transportation charges of the boat or defective or damaged parts thereof to the manufacturing facility of ADVANTAGE. If the defects or damage are warranted hereunder, ADVANTAGE will repair the defects or damage and prepay transportation charges back to the dealer's site from which you purchased the boat for pickup by the original retail purchaser unless another delivery site is otherwise mutually agreed upon by ADVANTAGE and the original retail purchaser.

5. What To Do If You Are Not Satisfied With Service:
ADVANTAGE believes you will be fully satisfied with the service you receive. Because it is the intent of ADVANTAGE to provide you with complete satisfaction, ADVANTAGE has added another feature to your warranty protection. In the unlikely event that you feel that our response to the warranty service request is not satisfactory, ADVANTAGE offers you the opportunity to air your complaint to an impartial dispute handling organization. What is said below explains how this works.

If you believe ADVANTAGE has not performed as stated in this warranty, you may submit a written description of the problems you have encountered, along with supporting documentation, with a copy to ADVANTAGE, to:

BOAT/U.S. Consumer Protection Bureau
880 S. Pickett St.
Alexandria, VA 22304

If your complaint is not resolved within the Bureau, Boat/U.S. will activate the "BetterBoat" Dispute Mediation Process and will send a complete file to a senior contact at either the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) or the Marine Retailers Association of America (MRAA) thus activating the mediation under rules mutually agreed upon by NMMA, MRAA and BOAT/U.S. The recommendations and settlement terms if any will be confidential and will not be used in a court of law.

You may not file suit against ADVANTAGE or its dealer until your claim has been submitted to the "BetterBoat" Dispute Mediation Process of informal dispute resolution and a decision has been reached or you have waited 45 days for a decision once the filing has commenced through the "BetterBoat" Dispute Mediation Process, whichever comes first.

6. General Provisions:
This warranty sets forth the responsibilities of ADVANTAGE regarding its manufactured boats. Repair of defects and damage is your exclusive remedy. This warranty is given in lieu of all express warranties. Implied warranties, including without limitation implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited to the duration of this limited warranty. In no event will ADVANTAGE be liable for any loss of use, loss of time, inconvenience, commercial loss, lost profits or savings or other incidental, special or consequential damages arising out of the use of or inability to use the boat.

7. State Law Rights:
Some states do not allow the exclusion of limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts. The above limitations or exclusions may, therefore, not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
