Buying a Used Boat

What does a typical used boat warranty cover?

Dealer warranties on used boats vary widely. Most are limited 30-90 day warranties covering the engine and drivetrain only — they typically exclude upholstery, electronics, trailer, and cosmetic issues. Some dealers sell extended service contracts through third-party providers. Read the warranty document carefully before signing. Private sales come with no warranty whatsoever — what you see is what you get. Always get any warranty promises in writing.
