FIVE-YEAR LIMITED HULL BLISTER WARRANTY. Provided that the original
factory gelcoat surface has not been altered, Crownline warrants to the original retail
purchaser of this boat that for a period of five (5) years after the date of the original
retail purchase Crownline will pay all or a portion of the cost to correct or repair any
osmotic blisters which occur on the underwater gelcoated surfaces of the hull
according to the following prorated schedule:
a.
Up to two (2) years after date of original retail purchase: Crownline pays
100% of repair cost;
b.
After two (2) years but up to three (3) years after date of original retail
purchase: Crownline pays 80% of repair cost;
c.
After three (3) years but up to four (4) years after date of original retail
purchase: Crownline pays 60% of repair cost;
d.
After four (4) years but up to five (5) years after date of original retail
purchase: Crownline pays 30% of repair cost;
e.
After five (5) years after date of original retail purchase: Crownline pays 0% of
repair cost.
Alterations which will void this Five-Year Limited Hull Blister Warranty include, without
limitation, damage, accident repair, sanding, scraping, sandblasting, or improper
surface preparation for application of a marine barrier coating or bottom paint. A
marine barrier coating must be properly applied to the hull bottom if the boat is to be
mounted in water for periods of more than sixty (60) days in any ninety (90) day
period and a marine barrier coating is also required if the boat is to be bottom
painted (failure to take such actions in such circumstances will also void this Five-
Year Limited Hull Blister Warranty). For purposes of determining coverage under this
Five-Year Limited Hull Blister Warranty, osmotic blisters are defined as those blisters
larger than 1/8” in diameter and with a depth of 1/16” or greater which occur on the
hull below the water line. All repairs and replacements under this Five-Year Limited
Hull Blister Warranty shall be performed by Crownline or a dealer of Crownline
chosen in Crownline’s sole discretion. This Five-Year Limited Hull Blister Warranty is
further subject to all limitations and conditions explained below.
In the event that the Transferable Limited Structural Warranty provided for in
paragraph 3 above is transferred by the original retail purchaser of the boat to a
subsequent purchaser within five (5) years after the date of the original retail
purchase and the subsequent purchaser registers the transfer with Crownline and
pays the established warranty transfer fee in accordance with the requirements set
forth in paragraph 3, the remaining term of the foregoing Five-Year Limited Hull
Blister Warranty shall also be transferred to the subsequent purchaser. This Five-
Year Limited Hull Blister Warranty may be transferred one time only by the original
retail purchaser to a subsequent purchaser.
