SECTION TWO
WARRANTY POLICY MANUAL
Dealer must make available to all purchasers and potential purchasers, prior to sale, Clipper
Marine’s current warranty and, upon sale, must obtain purchaser’s signature on Clipper Marine’s cur-
rent warranty registration card, and provide purchasers with a copy of the warranty and the change
of address/change of owner form. Dealer must return the completed and signed warranty registra-
tion card to Clipper Marine within 10 days from date of sale.
Whenever a warranty claim is made by any Clipper Marine boat owner, Dealer must call Clipper
Marine at [phone] to obtain approval for the necessary repairs from the manager of Clipper
Marine’s Products Service Department or his supervisors. If the warranty work is approved during
this telephone conversation, Dealer will be assigned a repair number for the work, which number
must be used by Dealer in all further correspondence relating to that claim. Upon completion of the
warranty repair work, Dealer shall fill out the Clipper Marine Warranty Claim Report and shall trans-
mit that report, fully completed and signed by the boat owner, along with all bills and repair receipts
for material and labor. Such warranty claim reports must be submitted to Clipper Marine within
30/days after the completion of the repairs. NO WARRANTY CLAIMS WILL BE HONORED
UNLESS DEALER FULLY COMPLIED WITH THE FOREGOING REQUIREMENTS.
Please note the following regulations before beginning warranty repair work. Clipper Marine’s war-
ranty applies only to defects discovered within one year from date of first sale or use by dealer,
whichever occurs first. The warranty does not apply to any boat used for charter service or any
other commercial use (or to any boat which has been materially altered or modified without Clipper
Marine’s consent). The warranty applies only to boats which have been given normal and reason-
able maintenance and does not apply if the repair is required because the boat has been subjected
to abnormal or unreasonable use. The Clipper Marine warranty does not cover normal wear and
discoloration of finishes, fittings or fabrics. (Leaks around windows and pop-tops are considered nor-
mal and subject to normal maintenance.) Clipper Marine will not reimburse Dealer for any material
used in warranty repair work unless Clipper Marine is first given the opportunity to supply the neces-
sary materials to Dealer, free of charge.
Clipper Marine may require Dealer to return the boat to Clipper Marine’s factory in order to effect
major repairs.
Clipper Marine expects its dealers to stand behind their warranty work, and will not reimburse Dealer
for the same repair twice.
We feel that if Clipper Marine’s dealers handle all warranty claims as though they were bearing the
expense, the Clipper Marine warranty policy will operate smoothly and to the benefit of Clipper
Marine, its dealers and their customers. Clipper Marine asks each dealer to keep the Clipper Marine
warranty policy manual in front of him when talking to Clipper Marine owners about warranty cover-
age.
