C.PROCEDURES
FOR WARRANTY CLAIM
To receive warranty owner
must provide Inmar Inflatables with a reasonable opportunity to repair, and
reasonable access to the product for warranty service. Warranty claims shall be
made by delivering the product for inspection to an authorized dealer
authorized to service Inmar products. If the purchaser cannot deliver the
product to such a dealer, written notice must be given to Inmar. We will then
arrange for the inspection and any covered repair. The purchaser, in that case,
shall pay for all related transportation charges and/or travel time. If the
service provided is not covered by this warranty, purchaser shall pay for all
related labor and material, and any other expenses associated with that
service. Purchaser shall not, unless requested by Inmar, ship the product or
parts of the product directly to Inmar. You
must take your boat or claimed defective part with proof of purchase (bill of
sale) to an authorized service center for inspection during normal working
hours. For the location of the nearest service center you may contact us by
telephone (800) 729-1665 or through our web page www.InmarBoats.com or by email
to [email protected]. All warranty actions are handled by the service
center or dealer. To be eligible for warranty determination, you must contact
your nearest Inmar dealer within 30 days of occurrence of the claimed defect.
Inmar’s sole exclusive obligation under
this warranty is limited to, at our option, repairing a defective part,
replacing such part or parts with new or Inmar Inflatables certified
re-manufactured parts, or refunding the purchase price of the product. If unit
is deemed non-repairable Inmar may offer a prorated credit based on the
remaining amount of warranty. The purchaser will be allowed to use that credit
toward a replacement model of similar value.
D.LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY AND OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1. It is expressly agreed that this is the only
warranty given by Inmar. No one is authorized to make any other warranties on
behalf of Inmar. IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
ARE LIMITED TO THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES LISTED ABOVE. Some states do not allow
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may
not apply to you.
2. Inmar's sole obligation, and your exclusive
remedy under this warranty, is limited to repair or replacement in accordance with
this warranty. In no event, shall any obligation exceed the purchase price
applicable to the product or part thereof to which the claim relates.
3. Inmar expressly disclaims and excludes any
consequential, incidental, punitive, indirect or contingent damages whatsoever,
including any damages related to breach of any express or implied warranty.
Some states and provinces do not allow (a) limitation on how long a warranty
lasts, or (b) the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, as such, these limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This
warranty gives you specific legal rights, which vary from province to province
or state to state.
4. Inmar reserves the right to make changes in
the design and material of its inflatable boats without incurring any
obligations to incorporate such changes in units already completed or in the
hands of dealers or consumers. The entire obligation of Inmar regarding the
sale of its inflatable is stated within this written warranty, except as otherwise
provide by law.
5. Inmar does not authorize its dealer or any
other person to assume for it any other warranty or liability in connection
with the sale of its boats.
6. The Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971 provides
for defect notification by the manufacturer to first purchasers. Failure to
register your purchase with the manufacturer by completing online registration
constitutes waiver of the right to defect notification.

consumer on or after January 1, 2015 and supersedes all previous warranties.
