2.5. Warranty Period. All express warranties
are for the time period set forth in this
Section 2, unless a longer warranty period
is required by applicable law, in which case
such longer warranty period will apply.
3. Engine and Transmission. The engines used
in MasterCraft boats are supplied by ILMOR-
MARINE L.L.C., in Mooresville, North Carolina
(“ILMORMARINE”); or Volkswagen Marine En-
gines in Tampa, Florida (“Volkswagen Marine”).
These companies provide a separate warranty
of three (3) years from the date of the original
retail purchase of the boat or the initial use of the
boat, whichever rst occurs, for the engine and
transmission. A statement of the Indmar Power
Train Warranty, ILMORMARINE Limited War-
ranty or the Volkswagen Marine Warranty is pro-
vided separately to the original retail purchaser.
MasterCraft provides no independent warranty
with regard to the engine and transmission;
however, the owner may contact MasterCraft at
the address or telephone number listed in Sec-
tion 7 of this Limited Warranty to obtain contact
information for making claims or inquiries under
the applicable engine manufacturer’s warranty.
Contact information for Volkswagen Marine is
provided in the warranty statement provided at
the time of purchase to the original retail pur-
chaser.
4. Warranty Conditions, Limitations and Exclu-
sions. MasterCraft boats are manufactured by
trained craftspersons from high-quality materi-
als and components. However, conditions out-
side MasterCraft’s control require specic limi-
tations on, and exclusions from, coverage under
this Limited Warranty. The Limited Warranty on
the Structural Components set forth in Section
2 of this Warranty does not cover or include any
other components fastened or applied to the
hull or deck. This Limited Warranty constitutes
the nal, complete and exclusive statement of
warranty terms, and no other person or entity
is authorized to make any other warranties or
representations on behalf of MasterCraft. Fur-
thermore, the Limited Warranty set forth in Sec-
tion 2 (including all subsections) hereof does not
cover the following:
(a) damage caused by misuse, negligence,
accident; collision or impact with any
object;
(b) damage caused by any improper altera-
tion or modication to the boat or any
of its component parts or accessories,
including damage resulting from altera-
tion, modication, repair or replacement
in such a way as to increase the cubic-
inch capacity or horsepower output of
the engine and boat as originally manu-
factured;
(c) damage caused by the use of improper
or contaminated fuel or uids;
(d) damage caused by the use of customer-
applied chemicals or accidental spills;
(e) damage caused by failure to maintain
the boat in accordance with the maintenance provisions in the Owner’s Manu-
al or improper maintenance of the boat;
(f) damage caused by the failure to comply with any recall or request for repair;
(g) damage resulting from the use of the boat for any racing, speed, commercial competi-
tion or performance demonstration;
(h) damage resulting from use of the boat for rental, commercial or industrial pur-
poses;
(i) damage to hardware and other components fastened or adhered to the hull,
deck or liner;
(j) damage caused by re, theft, freezing, vandalism, explosion, lightning, wind, hail
storms, ooding or other natural disaster;
(k) damage to any component parts and accessories not manufactured by Mas-
terCraft, including but not limited to, the engine, drivetrain, transmission,
propeller, shift and throttle control levers and cables, pumps, blowers, wind-
shields, canvas, upholstery, tower and accessories, instrumentation and steer-
ing systems; however, such items may be warranted by the individual manu-
facturer, and if possible, MasterCraft will provide the owner with a copy of the
manufacturer’s warranty:
(l) damage caused by use of any non-MasterCraft trailer;
(m) damage caused by improper support of the boat on davits, hoist system or
boat lift of any kind;
(n) damage to paints, varnishes, gel coat surfaces and colors, chrome-plated or
anodized nishes, oor and oor covers and any other surface coatings, as
well as damage due to in-water storage without proper barrier coat and bot-
tom paints (NOTE: Although MasterCraft uses the highest-grade gel coat ma-
terials, a condition may develop where the bottom of the boat may show signs
of discoloration and/or blisters if the boat is left in the water for long periods
of time, which is dened as in excess of thirty (30) days); therefore, a proper
barrier coat and bottom paint should be used whenever it is anticipated that
the boat will be left in the water for an extended period of time);
(o) damage to the trailer and its parts or components due to abrasions, rock chips,
rust, improper care or maintenance, or use in salt or brackish water; however,
the nishes of galvanized trailers, which are designed for use in salt or brack-
ish water, are warranted to be free from damage resulting from use in salt or
brackish water for one (1) year from the date of the original retail purchase or
the initial use of the trailer, whichever rst occurs;
(p) damage caused by dealer-installed options or accessories;
(q) damage caused by consumer-installed options or accessories;
and/or
(r) all warranty coverage will expire after ninety (90) days on boats used for com-
mercial purposes.
