APPENDIX A: BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY
Bayliner provides the following BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY to the original retail purchasers of its 2002/2003
Capri model boats, purchased from an authorized dealer, operated under normal, noncommercial use:
Limited Lifetime Structural Hull Warranty
The selling dealer will repair or replace, at Bayliner’s option, any Structural Hull Failure, as defined below, which is caused by a
defect in factory materials or workmanship, for as long as the original purchaser owns the boat. For purposes of this BAYLINER
CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY: 1) The “Hull” shall mean the single fiberglass molded shell and integral structure within that
shell, including stringers, floorboards and related structural reinforcements, all of which are below the hull flange; and 2) a “Struc-
tural Hull Failure” shall mean a substantial failure or defect in the boat’s Hull which causes the boat to be unfit or unsafe for general
use as a pleasure craft under normal operating conditions. IN NO EVENT SHALL BAYLINER’S LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER
EXCEED THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF CUSTOMER’S BOAT AS OF THE DATE OF CUSTOMER’S CLAIM.
One Year Parts and Components Limited Warranty
The selling dealer will repair or replace, at Bayliner’s option, any part or component found to be defective in factory materials or
workmanship which does not constitute a Structural Hull Failure or a Cosmetic Gelcoat Defect, as defined below, within one (1)
year of the date of delivery of your boat.
Six Month Cosmetic Gelcoat Defect Limited Warranty
The selling dealer will repair or replace, at Bayliner’s option, any Cosmetic Gelcoat Defect within six (6) months of the date of
delivery of your boat. For purposes of this BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY, a Cosmetic Gelcoat Defect shall mean
any discoloration, crack, crazing or air void in the boat’s Gelcoat which is caused by a defect in factory materials or workman-
ship and which does not constitute a Structural Hull Failure.
THE REMEDIES PROVIDED IN THIS BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL CONSTITUTE OWNER’S
SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY.
What Is Not Covered
This BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY does not apply to:
1. Engines, drive trains, controls, props, batteries, or other equipment or accessories that carry their own individual warranties,
all of which warranties are hereby assigned to owner to the extent permitted by the manufacturer of such components, equip-
ment or accessories, as owner’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to such items;
2. Engines, parts or accessories not installed by Bayliner;
3. Rainwater leakage, including rainwater leakage through convertible tops;
4. Cosmetic gelcoat discoloration, cracks, crazing or air voids occurring more than six months from the date of delivery;
5. Hull blisters that form below the waterline;
6. Normal deterioration, including but not limited to wear and tear or corrosion of hardware, vinyl, tops, upholstery, trim tape,
plastic, metal or wood;
7. Any Bayliner boat which has been overpowered according to Bayliner factory specifications for such boat;
8. Any Bayliner boat used for commercial purposes;
9. Any defect caused by product abuse or misuse, alteration of the product, or failure of the customer to provide reasonable care
and maintenance.
Other Limitations
1. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ON THIS
BOAT. ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MER-
CHANTABILITY AND FITNESS, ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. BAYLINER FURTHER DISCLAIMS ANY LIABIL-
ITY FOR PRODUCT FAILURE OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS ARISING FROM CLAIMS OF NEGLIGENCE,
DEFECTIVE DESIGN, MANUFACTURING DEFECT, FAILURE TO WARN AND/OR INSTRUCT, LACK OF SEA-
WORTHINESS, AND ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY NOT EXPRESSLY COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.
2. TO THE EXTENT ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PUR-
POSE IS IMPLIED BY LAW AND CAN NOT BE DISCLAIMED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW DESPITE THE DIS-
CLAIMER HEREIN, SUCH WARRANTIES SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF ONE YEAR.
3. NEITHER BAYLINER NOR THE SELLING DEALER SHALL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE; LOSS OF USE OF THE BOAT; LOSS OF TIME, PROFITS OR INCOME; INCONVE-
NIENCE; COMMERCIAL OR ECONOMIC LOSS; OR ANY OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES.
4. IN NO EVENT SHALL BAYLINER’S LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER EXCEED THE FAIR MARKET VALUE OF CUS-
TOMER’S BOAT AS OF THE DATE OF CUSTOMER’S CLAIM.
5. Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long any implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to
you. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limita-
tion or exclusion may not apply to you. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights, which vary from state to state.
Your Obligations
In order to comply with Federal regulations, and as a condition precedent to limited warranty coverage hereunder, you must sub-
mit your limited warranty registration card within 30 days of delivery of your boat. Bayliner’s receipt of the limited warranty
registration card is a condition precedent to limited warranty coverage. All warranty work or repairs must be referred to your
selling dealer for authorization as a condition precedent to limited warranty coverage.
YOU MUST GIVE US WRITTEN NOTICE OF YOUR WARRANTY CLAIM PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF YOUR
BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY AND ALLOW US AN OPPORTUNITY TO RESOLVE THE MATTER.
We require that you return your boat, at your expense, to your selling dealer or, if necessary, to the Bayliner factory. You will be
responsible for all transportation, haul-outs and other expenses incurred in returning the boat for warranty service.
Transferability
This BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY extends only to the first retail purchaser. Remaining coverage under this
BAYLINER CAPRI LIMITED WARRANTY may be transferred by the first retail purchaser once to a second owner upon writ-
ten request to Bayliner within thirty (30) days of the purchase of the boat, accompanied by payment of a transfer fee to Bayliner
Marine Corporation in the amount of $250. In the event of such transfer, the Limited Lifetime Structural Hull Warranty will
expire ten (10) years from the date of original purchase by the first retail purchaser as reflected in Bayliner’s records. Bayliner
reserves the right to reject a warranty transfer request for a Capri that has been damaged, neglected, or otherwise previously
excluded from warranty.
