Warranty Claims

Warranties are designed to make people feel safer by ensuring that the mechanical failure of specified components after the original warranty has expired is all completely covered. Clear wording clarifying what is and is not covered, claim limits, how to file a claim, and how your repair will be done are all important features of a good warranty, and should all be considered before signing.

Lifts or travelling costs are not covered under warranty
All warranties are on a “return to dealer/manufacturer” basis. If this is not possible at our discretion, we will ask you to submit an estimate from a local contractor to carry out the works.
If the defect is found to be due to operator fault, then you will be subject to parts and labour charges
All warranty work must be instructed by Clipper Marine. We will not pay any unauthorised charges so please do not instruct any work to be carried out on the boat or engine without Clipper Marines consent
