INTRODUCTION-16
CONDITIONS ON THE APPLICABILITY
OF LIMITED WARRANTY COVERAGE
The limited warranties contained herein apply only
to covered defects
fi rst arising and reported in writ-
ing to Silverton or its authorized dealer within the
applicable warranty coverage. If the Silverton Yacht
is used for commercial, rental, charter or any other
non-consumer, individual or recreational services,
then the above warranty periods are limited to
sixty (60) days from the date of purchase. These
limited warranties shall not be effective unless the
Silverton warranty registration form and pre-delivery
service record are duly completed and signed by
the
fi rst-use purchaser within ten (10) days of the
date of delivery of a Silverton Yacht. The warranty
registration form and the pre-delivery service record
must be returned to Silverton, and they must be
appropriately completed and signed by both the
authorized Silverton Dealer and owner. Warranty
coverage shall not be initiated until the completed
form is received at Silverton. The Silverton Dealer is
responsible for submitting the warranty registration
form and pre-delivery service record to Silverton.
The Silverton Dealer is to be used by the Silverton
Yacht owner for reporting, claiming, and receiving
any warranty service from Silverton. All repairs
covered by these limited warranties must be pre-
approved by Silverton. Normally, all repair requests
and approvals are to be communicated through an
authorized Silverton Dealer. To obtain warranty
service for your Silverton Yacht, including any al-
legedly defective part, you, as owner, must make
a speci
fi c and detailed claim in writing to an autho-
rized Silverton Dealer within the applicable warranty
period. Warranty repairs may be performed at the
authorized Silverton Dealers servicing location or
at an otherwise Silverton approved servicing facil-
ity at Silverton’s discretion. The owner is respon-
sible for all expenses associated with transporting
the Silverton Yacht and/or the defective part to
and from the Silverton selected service location.
Silverton may also, at its option, choose to conduct
any repairs or replacements at the Silverton plant.
If repairs or replacements are determined to be
performed at the Silverton plant, then the transpor-
tation costs to and from the Silverton plant are the
obligation of the owner.
The Silverton Yacht owner shall report to Silverton
any Silverton Dealer failures in the performance of
warranty repairs.
The sole and exclusive remedy under this warranty,
including any applicable implied warranty, is the
repair or replacement as determined by Silverton
at its option of defects in materials and workman-
ship covered by the limited warranties. The labor
cost reimbursement will be based on the Labor
Allowance Schedule established by Silverton from
time to time. Repairs are not to be performed by a
non-Silverton Dealer and the repair cost MUST be
authorized by Silverton in advance and be based
on a reasonable number of hours as determined by
Silverton. Transportation, hauling, launching, bot-
tom paint, storage, dockage, cradling rental, rigging
and de-rigging, or other similar costs are not part of
Silverton’s obligation under the limited warranties
and shall not be paid for by Silverton.
