Contender Hull Warranty?
Does anybody know what the hull warranty is on a Contender?
I have a 2002 31 open with some fairly significant gel coat issues which very obviously come form a flaw in application. I havent called Contender directly yet but I thought I would ask to see if any of you know. Thanks in advance! p.s. - Where is the Contender factory?

good luck.......I own a 33T and have some issues with gel coat.....the factory will send you gel coat but you have to pay for it...the factory isnt gonna do anything for you so I would hire a fiberglass guy and get the gel coat from the factory
sucks but the what they are gonna tell you...if you find something please let me know |

I cant believe what im reading
.I would not have assumed that contender would have treated there customers that way!Im quite suprised to hear this.If it is under warranty its under warranty thats my take on it!If it was A flaw in anything they do and or did,it should be there responsibility,whether structurally or in fiberglass and or gel coat and so on. ![]()

Mary ... if you run across this thread ... you have expressed interest in helping me with this in the past and I appreciate it. Do you have any idea how Contender usually handles these type of issues? In warranty, out of warranty? Does anyone know how many years th ehull is warrantied? Again, I will try to contact Contender directly, I was just curious if anyone here knew. Thanks

I was mearly stating the obvious.And that I was quite suprised to hear that Jimmys boat was not repaired when he called them and that they charged him for the materials.I think contenders are some fine boats.But if mary told you that she would help you maybe you should have pm'ed her directly not to stir up any trouble anyway.Because there are A lot of contender haters on this board and it gives people opportunity to talk.jm2c
