Owner’s Guide

Congratulations and Welcome Aboard!
is Owner’s Guide was designed to acquaint you with the safe, proper operation and
maintenance of your new yacht and its systems. Your first duty as Captain of your new Marquis
should be to read your Owner’s Guide and all manufacturer-supplied operating and maintenance
instructions found within your Owner’s Information kit.
Be sure to mail in all manufacturer registrations and warranty cards to validate your Marquis
and OEM warranties. ese warranty cards have been assembled and are contained in the OEM
information packets within your Owner’s Information kit. Marquis is proud to be supported by an
exclusive network of experienced and knowledgeable dealers. If you have any questions regarding
your new yacht including warranty please contact your selling dealer. Please read all of your
warranties carefully and remember that your selling dealer is your point of contact for all questions
and warranty issues.
If you’re new to boating, learn the proper rules of seamanship to ensure the safety of your
passengers. Refer to Chapman’s Piloting, Seamanship and Small Boat Handling and attend a safe
boating class offered by the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, United States Power Squadron, or any
enterprise experienced in conducting safe boating courses.
ank you for choosing Marquis Yachts. We’re confident your new yacht will provide you and
your family with years of enjoyable cruising.
