Imagine for a moment that you have spent months or even years saving up for that dream fishing boat or sailboat. Finally, the day arrives when you can financially afford to lease or buy it. You have waited for what seems like an eternity to go sailing or fishing in one of the local area lakes or out on the Pacific Ocean. Now imagine that after a month or so, you realize that something is wrong with that watercraft, and it is land-locked on dry dock, for repeated repairs over the same problem. What a disappointment.

About California’s Lemon Law for Boats and Watercraft

In 1971, the California legislature enacted the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act to provide consumers with legal recourse against dealerships and manufacturers if they leased or purchased defective boats or other watercraft that were under warranty. The law specifies that eligible vessels must have a significant defect that compromises the safety, use, or value of the boat or watercraft. A Boats and Watercraft Lemon lawyer in Culver City, California can explain your consumer’s rights and the legal options that are available to you under these circumstances. Our team has helped innumerable clients get justice in similar circumstances.

Boats and Watercraft Covered by California’s Lemon Law

Any boat or watercraft sold with a Manufacturer’s Warranty is eligible to receive coverage under California’s Lemon Law. This also includes boats that are not equipped with a motor. If sold with a warranty, the following boats and watercraft could be covered under this law:

  • Jet skis
  • Motorboats
  • Catamarans
  • Fishing boats
  • Pleasure craft
  • Yachts
  • Sea-doo
  • Sailboats
  • Speedboats
  • Pontoon boats

When pursuing a Lemon Law claim, putting the manufacturer on notice lets them know you intend to file a claim against them for the defective product you bought or leased. Furthermore, this informs them about a particular safety issue that could adversely affect other individuals using California’s waterways.

The Dangers of a Defective Boat or Watercraft

Where boats and watercraft are concerned, certain defects can pose dangerous safety hazards and even become deadly. Examples of these defects include:

  • engine failure or malfunction
  • navigation (GPS) system failure
  • communication system problems

These defects could result in you getting lost or stranded and unable to get the most current storm and weather updates. These conditions are all potentially dangerous and could even be deadly. Especially if you are stuck on open water where conditions can change in the blink of an eye. Any defect that prevents you from using your vessel should be discussed with a Boats and Watercraft Lemon lawyer in Culver City, California, with the Braff Injury Trial Law Group.

You Must Provide Proof that the Vessel is a Lemon

If your boat or watercraft is a Lemon according to California law, the manufacturer is required to reimburse you all related costs, as well as what you have already paid for repairs or to replace it. However, you must prove that it qualifies as a Lemon under California’s Law. Therefore, you must confirm:

  • You have leased or purchased the vessel
  • The defect is covered under the warranty
  • Your vessel is under the Manufacturer’s Warranty
  • The defect persists despite a reasonable number of repair attempts
  • The defect is of a material nature that significantly impairs the safety, use, or value of the vessel
  • The defect was not caused by an accident, lack of proper maintenance, modifications, or owner misuse
  • Your vessel has been taken in for repairs a reasonable number of times, and has spent a significant amount of time at the dealership, or in a repair shop

If the manufacturer denies or fights your claim, you should call the Braff Injury Trial Law Group and discuss your circumstances with our Boats and Watercraft Lemon lawyer in Culver City, California, as soon as possible. It is important to remember to document your repairs visits, and any other communication pertaining to the defects in the watercraft or boat that you own or lease. It helps to file a case as early as you can so that we can negotiate with the manufacturer on your behalf, and help you get a refund or a replacement watercraft.

I have used Braff Legal Group before to help me with a lemon law issue and they were very helpful. I called them up and they were able to answer all my questions on the phone. The process of working with them was very straightforward, which was perfect for me because I am not good with filling out legal documents.
