OWNER’S / OPERATOR’S INFORMATION
Warranty and Warranty Registration Cards
The Scout Limited Warranty Statement is included
with your boat. It has been written to be clearly
stated and easily understood. If you have any
questions after reading the warranty, please con-
tact Scout Customer Service.
Scout, engine manufacturers and the suppliers
of major components maintain their own manu-
facturer’s warranty and service facilities. It is
important that you properly complete the warranty
registration cards included with your boat and
engines and mail them back to the manufacturers
to register your ownership. This should be done
within 15 days of the date of purchase and before
the boat is put into service. A form for recording
this information is provided at the beginning of
this manual. This information will be important for
you and service personnel to know, if and when
you may need service or technical information.
The boat warranty registration requires the Hull
Identication Number “HIN” which is located on
the starboard side of the transom, just below the
rubrail. The engine warranty registration requires
the engine serial numbers. Please refer to the
engine owner’s manual for the location of the se-
rial numbers.
IMPORTANT:
All boat manufacturers are required by the Federal
Boat Safety Act of 1971 to notify rst time own-
ers in the event any defect is discovered “which
creates a substantial risk of personal injury to the
public.” It is essential that we have your warranty
registration card complete with your name and
mailing address in our les so that we can comply
with the law if it should become necessary.
Product Changes
Scout is committed to the continuous improve-
ment of our boats. As a result, some of the
equipment described in this manual or pictured
in the catalog may change or no longer be avail-
able. Scout reserves the right to change standard
equipment, optional equipment and specications
without notice or obligation. If you have ques-
tions about the equipment on your Scout, please
contact Scout Customer Service.
Service
All warranty repairs must be performed by an
authorized Scout Dealer. Should a problem de-
velop that is related to faulty workmanship or
materials, as stated in the Limited Warranty, you
should contact your Scout dealer to arrange for
the necessary repair. If you are not near your
dealer or another authorized Scout dealer or the
dealer fails to remedy the cause of the problem,
then contact the Scout Customer Service De-
partment within 15 days. It is the boat owner’s
responsibility to deliver the boat to the dealer for
warranty service.
Transferring The Warranty
For an administration fee of $100, Scout will ex-
tend warranty coverage to subsequent owners
of Scout models for the duration of the original
warranty period. The Limited Warranty may be
transferred to any subsequent purchaser of the
vessel within seven years from the date of deliv-
ery to the original purchaser. Please refer to the
Limited Warranty Statement for the procedure to
transfer the warranty.
To take advantage of this program, notication
of the change of ownership, including the new
owner’s name, address and telephone number
together with the appropriate fee, must be sent
to Scout within 10 days of the date of resale.
