Dear customer, 

You are now the proud owner of a inflatable boat. You have thus acquired the 
assurance of quality, since our boats are manufactured in conformity with strong 
safety regulations. Each boat has an identification number, which you will find on the 
data plate under SERIES NUMBER. The first letters and figures of this ID number 
have already been printed on the Conformity Certificates in this handbook. Please 
complete it by noting down the missing figures/letters into the Conformity Certificate 
of the manual. This ID number is to be mentioned in every correspondence with us or 
any authorised service station. It is only with this number that we will be able to 
identify your boat and give you the relevant information.
