The “Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971” requires all boat manufacturers to maintain a record of all first retail purchas-
ers and their current addresses for the purpose of notification in case of defective parts or equipment, or in case of non-
compliance with standards or regulations set forth by this act. Under the act, failure to complete and return your factory
warranty card for our records will waive your right to notification of defect and/or repair at manufacturer’s expense.
