1.5 Equipment Manufacturer Manuals
Hunter purchased various equipment and components
from other manufacturers and installed them on your
boat while it was being built. Examples include the
engines, pumps, and the generator. Most OEMs (Original
Equipment Manufacturers) have provided operation and
maintenance manuals for your boat’s equipment. Keep
OEM manuals with your Hunter Operator's Manual in a
safe and accessible place. Be sure to pass them along
to the new owner if you sell your boat.
NOTE: The OEM manuals take precedence over the
Hunter Operator's Manual. If information in the Hunter
Operator's Manual differs from that in the OEM manuals,
follow the information in the OEM manuals.
1.6 Warranties
Nearly all OEM equipment has its own limited warran-
ties. Warranty registration cards are in your Operator’s
packet.
Locate and read the individual warranties; put them
together for easy, future reference.
For international owner's; your warranty can be found in
your CE compliant Owner's Manual.
For U.S. and non-EU compliant countries, your warranty
info can be found in the Warranty section, chapter 3 of
the Operator's Manual.
1.7 Hull Identification Number (HIN)
The "Hull Identification Number" located on the starboard
aft side, is the most important identifying factor, and must
be included in all correspondence and orders. Failure
to include it creates delays. Also of vital importance are
the engine serial numbers and part numbers when writ-
ing about or ordering parts for your engine. Refer to the
engine manufacturers manuals for locations of engine
serial numbers, and record them for future reference.

1.8 Manufacturers Certifications
As a boat manufacturer Hunter builds their products to
guidelines established under the Federal Boat Safety Act
of 1971. The act is promulgated by the U.S. Coast Guard
who has authority to enforce these laws on boat manu-
facturers that sell products in the United States. Hunter
ensures that all of it's products comply with these laws.
The NMMA, National Marine Manufacturers Association,
provides Hunter with a third party certification. The
NMMA is an organization that represents the marine
industry and assists manufacturers, boat dealers, mari-
nas, repair yards and component suppliers in areas of
legislation, environmental concerns, marine business
growth, and state and federal government agency inter-
action. The third party certification that Hunter partici-
pates in, uses well known Standards and Recommended
Practices of the ABYC, American Boat and Safety Council.
We at Hunter participate extensively in the ABYC, which is
all non-profit, and develops and publishes voluntary stan-
dards and recommended practices for boat and equipment
design, construction, service and repair. We utilize all appli-
cable ABYC standards in the construction of Hunter boats.
Finally Hunter sells their products worldwide, and as
such must conform to the various rules and regulations
required by other countries. Most notably are the ISO
