LIMITED WARRANTY

NRS inflatables are guaranteed to the original owner of the board to be free from defects in 

workmanship and materials for three years from the date of purchase under normal recreational, commercial 

or rescue use. If, after inspection, we find that the board failed due to a covered defect, it will be repaired or 

replaced at our option without charge. No product lasts forever and we do not guarantee against wear, tear, 

improper care, abuse, or neglect. Any structural change automatically voids this limited warranty. Except 

expressly set forth herein, NRS disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to, the 

implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. EXCLUSIONS FROM LIMITED 

WARRANTY: Deterioration of a board increases dramatically when water is allowed to stand in the air 

chambers. Since this condition can be remedied only by the owner’s care, any problems attributed to water 

left in the air chambers are excluded from this limited warranty. As noted in this manual, explosive 

decompression tears are also excluded from this limited warranty. Boats shipped outside the USA may incur 

additional restrictions. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL NRS BE 

LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
