CUSTOMER SERVICE
If your boat requires warranty service, you must take it to any authorized Yamaha Boat dealer
within the United States. Be sure to bring your warranty registration card or other valid proof of the
original date of purchase. If a question or problem arises regarding warranty, first contact the owner
of the dealership. Since all warranty matters are handled at the dealer level, this person is in the
best position to help you. If you are still not satisfied and require additional assistance, please write:
CHANGE OF ADDRESS
The federal government requires each manufacturer to maintain a complete, up-to-date list of all
first purchasers against the possibility of a safety-related defect and recall. This list is compiled
from the purchase registrations sent to Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. by the selling dealer at
the time of your purchase.
If you should move after you have purchased your new boat, please advise us of your new address
by sending a postcard listing your Yamaha model name, engine number, dealer number [or deal-
er’s name] as it is shown on your warranty card, your name and new mailing address.

Q. May I perform any or all of the recommended maintenance shown in the Owner’s Manual
instead of having the dealer do them?
A. Yes, if you are a qualified mechanic and follow the procedures specified in the Owner’s and
Service Manual. We do recommend, however, that items requiring special tools or equipment
be done by a Yamaha Boat dealer.
Q. Will the warranty be void or cancelled if I do not operate or maintain my new boat exactly as
specified in the Owner’s Manual?
A. No. The warranty on a new boat cannot be “voided” or “cancelled.” However, if a particular
failure is caused by operation or maintenance other than as shown in the Owner’s Manual,
that failure may not be covered under warranty.
Q. What responsibility does my dealer have under this warranty?
A. Each Yamaha Boat dealer is expected to:
1. Completely set up each new boat before sale.
2. Explain the operation, maintenance, and warranty requirements to your satisfaction at the
time of sale, and upon your request at any later date. In addition, each Yamaha Boat dealer
is held responsible for his setup, service and warranty repair work.
Q. Is the warranty transferable to second owners?
A. Yes. The remainder of the existing warranty can be transferred upon request. The unit has
to be inspected and re-registered by an authorized Yamaha Boat dealer for the policy to
remain effective.
