I have to say I was impressed with Yamaha warranty coverage.
I had 500 hours on a supercharged ski that developed a bad heat sensor.
I checked everything and tried different things but it was to no avail.
The alarm would go off even if the engine was just started for the first time of the day.
After having the worst experience in my life with KAWASAKI warranty and the local dealer.
I documented that ordeal on the pwc weekly board.
I must say I was totally apprehensive about bringing my ski to Yamaha to get it fixed.
To my surprise the ski was taken care of and it cost me nothing.
That is one reason why I will only buy Yamaha.
I actually called the dealer today and told them I need a new fx ho cruiser and soon I will be purchasing another , both will have the 5 year warranty as always.
Oh and if you are looking for boat insurance I would strongly suggest progressive,, after having my ski and trailer destroyed on the interstate last Sunday these people went out of their way to handle everything very quickly. And very satisfactorily in every way. I Applaud them.
@Skysurfer2010, my rear transom remote stopped working last year and I was online looking for a replacement and while cleaning the boat last weekend, I turned on the stereo to try to get the remote to work and just happened to press the power button and low and behold the rear transom remote started working. Last year it looked a little water logged and I thought it was done. It wouldn't do anything. Reprogrammed the remote as I thought that stopped working as well and it started to work again too.Add rear transom remote (aquativ AV) to the list. Unless it fails within the first year in which case the manufacturers warranty will cover it. My dealer even admitted it's a common failure yet wouldn't do anything to help.
