terms of the Winning Edge™ Owner Protection Plan
or Limited Warranties. We provide this service to the
purchasers of Pre-Owned Four Winns
®
boats in the
interest of better boating. Four Winns welcomes every
purchaser of a Four Winns
®
boat, new or used, to
our family.
D - 6 INSURANCE COVERAGE
One of your responsibilities as a new boat owner is to
acquire proper insurance protection. Insurance should
include comprehensive and general liability coverage
appropriate to your financial needs. Please contact
your local agent for assistance on insurance coverage.
D - 7 SERIAL NUMBER RECORD
The manufacturer, model, and serial number of major
components are recorded during the assembly of each
Four Winns® boat. A copy of this form is included in
the owner’s packet. Using this form, you may want
to have your dealer help you complete the service
information form at the back of this manual. A copy of
the serial number record should be made and kept by
the dealer in his records. This can assist the dealer in
processing warranty claims, or obtaining necessary
information. The original copy of the serial number
record should be kept in the owner packet. The service
information form should remain in the owners manual
for easy reference.
D - 8 PRE-DELIVERY SERVICE
Four Winns makes every effort to deliver your boat
in “turn key” condition to the dealer. The process of
transporting and handling the boat necessitates certain
inspections and adjustments prior to delivery to you.
Also, various aspects of operation must be checked
and adjusted immediately prior to final delivery
and use.
The selling Four Winns dealer must perform this
thorough review of the boat and its numerous systems
during the commissioning or “dealer pre-delivery
service” of the craft.
A Four Winns Pre-Delivery Inspection Form is part of
the Warranty Registration Card. It lists the many items
encompassed by the pre-delivery service previously
described. The dealer is to check off the items as they
are completed, and complete the form as indicated
providing specific performance related information
appropriately.
Your Four Winns dealer will sign the Pre-Delivery
Inspection Form of the Warranty Registration Card
upon completion of the work. You will also be asked
to sign the Pre-Delivery Inspection Form upon ac-
cepting delivery of the boat. You are to retain the two
copies marked “Boat Owner”. Your dealer is to retain
the copy marked “Dealer copy” for his records. The
Manufacturer’s copy is electronically sent to the Four
Winns Customer Service Department.
D - 9 REPLACEMENT PARTS
Four Winns dealers are equipped with a Four Winns
parts manual that details the components of each
model and their appropriate part numbers. Many
Four Winns dealers inventory common replacement
components.
In addition, Four Winns maintains specific records on
the components used in the manufacture of each unit
and makes a concerted effort to maintain compo-
nents specifically to fill replacement part needs.
The Four Winns dealer from whom you purchased
your boat is in the best position to meet your needs.
If the dealer does not have the needed item, the
dealer has the capability, through direct contact
with the Four Winns Customer Service Department,
to obtain it quickly. Four Winns will only sell replace-
ment parts to established Four Winns dealers. If you
relocate and cannot find a Four Winns dealer close
to you, contact the Four Winns Customer Service
Department for information on the nearest dealer
in your area.
