IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Owner’s Manual
Spend some time looking through this manual. It
contains information concerning the operation and care
of your boat. The descriptions contained within the
manual will introduce you to the features of the boat and
provide you with a general knowledge of how the
equipment works. The manual is divided into sections
that are listed in the Table of Contents.
All instructions given in this book are as seen from the
stern looking toward the bow with starboard being to
your right, and port to your left. The information and
precautions listed in this manual are not all inclusive. It
may be general in nature in some cases and detailed in
others. The suppliers of some of the major components
such as engines, pumps, and appliances, provide their
own owner's manuals which have been included with
your boat. You should read the information in this
manual and the manuals of other suppliers completely
and have a thorough understanding of all component
systems and their proper operation before operating
your boat.
REMEMBER - IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO
ENSURE THAT YOUR BOAT IS SAFE FOR YOU AND
YOUR PASSENGERS. ALWAYS EXERCISE GOOD
COMMON SENSE WHEN INSTALLING EQUIPMENT
AND OPERATING THE BOAT.

The Wellcraft Limited Warranty Statement is printed in
this manual and on the warranty registration card. It has

Wellcraft, engine manufacturers, and the suppliers of
major components maintain their own manufacturer's
warranty and service facilities. It is important that you
properly complete the warranty registration cards
included with your boat and engine(s) and mail
them back to the manufacturer to register your
ownership. This should be done within 15 days of the
date of purchase and before the boat is put into service.
A form for recording this information for your records is
provided at the beginning of this manual. This
information will be important for you and service
personnel to know, if and when you may need service or
technical information.
Hull Identification Number Location
The boat warranty registration requires the Hull
Identification Number “HIN” which is located on the
starboard side of the transom, just below the rubrail.
The engine warranty registration requires the engine
serial numbers. Please refer to the engine owner's
manual for the location of the serial numbers.
Note: There are items which are not covered by
this warranty. These items are outlined in
the warranty statement.
By signing the warranty registration card you, the new
owner, indicate an understanding of the terms and
conditions of the limited warranty. The warranty
registration card should be properly completed by the
dealer, signed by the new owner, and returned to us
within fifteen (15) days after the original purchase in
order to validate the warranty. Be sure to keep the
Owner’s Registration Card for your records.
IMPORTANT:
All boat manufacturers are required by the Federal Boat
Safety Act of 1971 to notify first time owners in the
event any defect is discovered “which creates a
substantial risk of personal injury to the public.” It is
essential that we have your warranty registration
card complete with your name and mailing
address in our files so that we can comply with
the law if it should become necessary.
