fers in writing to the Silverton dealer and the second
owner. The limited lifetime hull and deck structure
fi berglass warranty is not transferable to any owner
subsequent to the fi rst use purchaser.
OWNER’S PROBLEM WITH
WARRANTY SERVICE
In the event the fi rst-use purchaser or registered
subsequent owner has any problems or questions
regarding the Silverton warranty or the Silverton
warranty service being provided by an authorized
Silverton Dealer, please forward that question or
problem directly to the authorized Silverton Dealer
in writing explaining your problem and asking for
their assistance in resolving the problem. Generally
speaking, the owner of the authorized dealership,
which is an independent contractor of Silverton, is in
the very best position to assist you because of their
familiarity with the warranty work that was performed
on your behalf. In addition, Silverton expects its deal-
ers to be concerned with your continued satisfaction
and, as a result, should be given an opportunity to
provide that assistance.
If, after contacting the dealer in writing and you, as the
fi rst-use purchaser or registered subsequent owner,
are unhappy with the dealer’s response or if you feel
that you require any further assistance, please write
to the address below. In communicating to Silverton,
please provide Silverton with a copy of the warranty
claim which is the subject of your need for assistance,
and any correspondence which you exchanged with
the dealer. Please be certain that the forwarded in-
formation includes your hull identi
fi cation number and
name as well as the hours of usage on your engines.
If at all possible, provide a chronological description
of the problems which you confronted as well as the
repair attempts. Include the dealer name and dealer
personnel consulted. It is much appreciated if you
would concisely describe your problem or question
and any comments that you might have regarding the
dealer’s efforts to conduct the repair. Upon receipt of
your correspondence, Silverton will begin its analysis
and investigation into the circumstances. Silverton
may contact you directly and the dealer if any further
information is necessary. Silverton will also contact
the dealership so as to assist both the dealer and
you in resolving the question or concern.
The above limitation or exclusion may not apply to
you. This warranty gives you speci
fi c legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
WARRANTY REGISTRATION
These limited warranties shall not be effective unless
the SILVERTON Warranty Registration Form and
Pre-Delivery Service Record; which are furnished with
each new boat, are
fi lled out completely and returned
to SILVERTON within ten (10) days of delivery.
The return to SILVERTON of the fully signed War-
ranty Registration Form is critical. Warranty cover-
age cannot be initiated until the completed form is
received at SILVERTON.
All repairs and/or replacements will be made by an
authorized SILVERTON Dealer, or at the option of
SILVERTON, at the SILVERTON plant. If the repairs
are of such a nature that the warranty work must be
performed at the SILVERTON plant, transportation
costs to and from the SILVERTON plant shall be
paid by the owner. The labor cost reimbursement
will be based on the Labor Allowance Schedule es-
tablished by SILVERTON and, where not applicable,
on a reasonable number of hours as determined by
SILVERTON. Any repairs and replacements must be
approved in advance by an authorized SILVERTON
Service Representative.
