Has Your Boat Been Recalled? Free Recall Notices From BoatUS

Used boats now account for over 70% of boat sales in the US and this has created an interesting problem for both boat owners and manufacturers. Federal law requires that all boat manufacturers recall and repair any vessel found to be in non-compliance with Coast Guard regulations or which contains a safety defect for a period of 10 years after the vessel was built. The trick part here is that most boats change hands a few times during their first 10 years and manufacturers are unable to notify new owners of the safety recalls. BoatUS has just launched an interesting new free service that allows owners to register their new or used boats so they can easily be contacted by manufacturers with important safety information and recalls. Do yourself and your passengers a favor and register your boat with BoatUS today, it's a easy way to avoid serious trouble on the water.
