The placard must also contain the warning that a person violating these
requirements is liable for civil and criminal penalties. The placard must
also state that local regulations may further restrict the discharge of gar-
bage. You may purchase these placards from local marinas, boat deal-
ers, or marine equipment suppliers.
The U.S. Coast Guard has also issued regulations requiring boats to
have a sanitation system on board to control pollution. Wastes are to be
stored in a holding tank or other device, such as a Porta-Potti, until the
device can be pumped out or otherwise disposed of at a shore facility.
Discharging this waste overboard is in most cases prohibited. Check with
the Coast Guard regarding regulations in your area.
OWNER’S LOGS AND RECORDS
At the end of this chapter are three forms which you will fi nd very help-
ful.
Use the
Boat Data Record
to record all important information about your
boat and the major components installed. Print a copy and after you have
entered all the data, store it in a safe place.
Do not keep this form
aboard your boat.
The
Travel Plan Log
provides a record of your destination, departure
and return times, boat description, passenger list, and other information
about the trip you have planned. At the bottom of the form is space for
listing emergency telephone numbers in case your return is delayed past
the expected time. It also has space for indicating information about the
person fi ling this report. Leave the completed form ashore with a respon-
sible person. We recommend you print several copies of this form each
boating season to ensure an ample supply.
The
Fuel Usage Chart
is a handy way to record information covering
engine hours, fuel consumption, miles traveled, as well as RPM (revolu-
tions per minute), Average MPH (miles per hour), and GPH (gallons per
hour).
WARRANTY POLICY TRANFER
Your Chaparral boat is backed by a Limited Express Warranty. It is impor-
tant that you are aware of its terms. If a problem arises with your Chapar-
ral boat as a result of workmanship or materials, contact your dealer as
soon as possible to determine whether correcting the problem may be
covered by the warranty. Please have your hull identifi cation number and
necessary model numbers on hand for the items that may need service
or repair. Your hull identifi cation number is below the rub rail on the star-
board aft corner of your boat.
The Chaparral Limited Warranty Policy may be transferred to subsequent
owner(s) providing the Ownership Transfer Record (OTR) is completed
and returned to the Chaparral Customer Service Offi ce. The OTR is lo-
cated after the Chaparral Limited Warranty Policy in Section 11. Subse-
quent owner(s) will receive the balance of warranty available subject to
a $100.00 deductible per occurrence for claims fi led in accordance with
the Chaparral Limited Warranty Policy. The Ownership Transfer fee var-
ies depending on the boat model and size. See the Chaparral Ownership
Transfer Record for details and associated fees.
