WARRANTY AND SERVICE

D - 1 FOUR WINNS® WARRANTY POLICY
The Four Winns Winning Edge™ Owner Protection Plan,
provides the new Four Winns purchaser with one of the
most comprehensive corporate commitments in the ma-
rine industry today. The Four Winns Owner Protection
Plan defines the warranty coverage on all units manu-
factured by Four Winns. It thoroughly describes the war-
ranty policies and those procedures to be followed to ob-
tain warranty coverage. Review the Four Winns Owner
Protection Plan and limited warranty statements care-
fully.
All engines utilized in the Four Winns® product are war-
ranted by the engine manufacturer. Your Four Winns
dealer is authorized to repair your engines and will work
closely with the engine manufacturer to resolve any prob-
lems you have.
D - 2 DECK/HULL STRUCTURE WARRANTY
Each unit manufactured by Four Winns is encompassed
by a separate warranty providing specific coverage on the
deck/hull structure. The Four Winns Owner Protection
Plan thoroughly describes this coverage.
D - 3 WARRANTY REGISTRATION
A Four Winns Warranty Registration Card is attached to
the Four Winns Owner Protection Plan statement. Your
Four Winns dealer is responsible for completing and mail-
ing the warranty card at the time of purchase. This is the
sole basis for establishing proof of ownership of the boat
and corresponding warranty validation. Registration of
the boat and engines with the manufacturer is required
by the Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971.
Other equipment manufacturers also require that their
products be registered with the respective companies.
Warranty registration cards are provided in the owner’s
information packet.

D - 4 TRANSFER OF WARRANTY
Four Winns confidence in the product and our warranty
commitments can extend after the original purchaser may
choose to move on to a new boat. The remainder of the
Four Winns warranty coverage is transferable to the sec-
ond owner of the boat for a fee. The warranty may be
transferred only once. Registration of the second owner
is required and the amount of the transfer fee is $250.00.
Transfer of the remainder of the warranty must occur
within five (5) years of the original retail sale. The trans-
fer fee must be paid within fifteen (15) days of purchase
of the used boat by check, money order or cashier’s
check payable to Four Winns. We will notify the appro-
priate engine manufacturer of the engine warranty trans-
fer. The Four Winns Owner Protection Plan thoroughly
describes the action required to transfer warranty cover-
age.
D - 5 PRE-OWNED UNIT REGISTRATION
Section D-4 Transfer of Warranty discusses the need to
properly register the purchase of a pre-owned boat with
Four Winns in order to transfer applicable warranty cov-
erage.
Purchasers of all Pre-Owned Four Winns® models, re-
gardless of the decision to transfer warranty coverage,
are encouraged to register ownership with Four Winns.
To register ownership of a “Pre-Owned Four Winns® boat,”
provide Four Winns with your name, address, daytime
phone number, purchase date, and hull serial number of
the boat purchased. The hull serial number plate is per-
manently affixed to the starboard side of the transom.
Registration of a Pre-Owned Four Winns® boat does not
extend or in any way affect or modify the specific terms of
the Four Winns Owner Protection Plan or Limited War-
ranties.
We provide this service to the purchasers of Pre-Owned
Four Winns® boats in the interest of better boating. Four
Winns welcomes every purchaser of a Four Winns® boat,
new or used, to our family.
