5-Year Limited Transferable Structural Hull Warranty:
STINGRAY Boat Co. (hereafter "STINGRAY") warrants the HULL against structural defects in material and workmanship

if the boat is purchased from an authorized STINGRAY Dealer. During the warranty period described above, STINGRAY
will repair or replace, at its option, the fiberglass HULL if it is determined, in Stingray's discretion, to be
structurally defective in material or workmanship. For purposes of this warranty, the HULL is defined as the part
of the boat in contact with the water when at rest. The warranty provided in this section is subject to all
limitations and conditions contained herein. The remaining term of this HULL Warranty, if any, may be transferred

the established warranty transfer fee. Contact STINGRAY Customer Service at

excessive sanding, scraping, sandblasting, or accident repair. A marine barrier coating with proper surface
preparation is required if the boat is bottom painted or if the boat is left in fresh or salt water for more than
