8.2. Warranty
description
This warranty is divided into two parts:
8.2.1. The Full Warranty Period
The full warranty period is covering the first year from the customer taking possession of the boat
for the first time. During the Full Warranty Period, AHPC warrants to the customer that AHPC will
at its option repair, replace or adjust free of charge any part of the boat AHPC finds to be defective
in factory materials or workmanship when used within the operating limitations of the boat and the
provisions of this warranty.
8.2.2. The Pro-rata Warranty Period
The Pro-rata Warranty Period is covering the four years from the end of the Full Warranty Period.
During the Pro-rata Warranty Period, AHPC warrants to the customer that it will, at its option,
repair, replace or adjust any hull AHPC finds to be defective in factory materials or workmanship
when used within the operating limitations of the boat and the provisions of this warranty, at
commercial rates less the pro-rata proportion. The pro-rata proportion is 80% in the first year after
the end of the Full Warranty Period less a further 20% for each year thereafter.
