Aakron Inflatable Boat Limited Warranty
1.Each new Inflatable Boat (hereafter called the ‘boat’) sold by Aakron Marine (hereafter referred to as the ‘Trader’) is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship. 2. This warranty applies to the registered buyer of a new boat and shall become effective only on receipt of a completed registration form by the Trader within 3 months of the date of purchase. 3. The warranty is for a five year period in temperate climates or three years if any time has been spent in the tropics, reducing pro-rata from the date of purchase and warrants that the base fabric and seams will not fail but will remain fit for their purpose, provided that the boat shall be stored under-cover in a cool place and protected from sunlight and the elements at all times when not in use. 4. This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, accidental damage, over-pressurisation, commercial use including charter use, live-aboard cruisers, neglect, racing, or lack of maintenance, fading or oxidation or other damage caused by ultra-violet radiation or sun damage, fuel and solvents or sun-tan and similar lotions or oils. Nor does it cover the use or abuse of any accessory. 5. This warranty does not cover any incidental or consequential loss, loss of time, inconvenience or loss of income, or any other costs of any type consequent to any claim under this warranty. 6. Claims shall be made under this warranty by delivering the boat during normal working hours for inspection by the Trader or its nominated agent who will then either do the repairs or arrange for the inspection and repair, provided such service is covered under this warranty. The purchaser shall pay for the cost of any transport required. If the service needed is not covered by this warranty the purchaser shall pay for all related labour, materials and any other associated expenses required to fix the problem. Any boat or parts shipped to the Trader or agent must be shipped with freight prepaid. 7. The Traders obligations under this warranty shall be limited to repairing or replacing (at the Traders sole discretion) any defective part, or compensating on a pro-rata basis. The Trader reserves the right to improve or modify any boat without assuming any obligation to modify any boat previously manufactured. 8. This warranty is intended to be additional to any rights the purchaser may have pursuant to any ‘fair trading’ laws applicable in the country or state of purchase.
Note: in the interests of obtaining the longest life from your investment it is recommended that the boat and accessories be hosed down with fresh water after use and stored in a cool (not freezing) dry place out of the sun and weather, while being very slightly deflated. Sun damage is not covered. Sun-covers are available from Aakron Marine at very reasonable prices, or you can get a UV protective clear lacquer applied for prolonged protection. Aakron can advise how to arrange this. Avoid contacting the fabric with sun-tan or similar oils. If you needa tender for use in the tropics or in a live-aboard situation we strongly recommend you choose from our ‘Hypalon’ fabric Cruisemaster models. Issued 10-06-2012
