Following the recent launch of the BIA Dealer Certified Used Boat Warranty program and Boat Protection Plus program, boat dealers from Sydney to Perth and all points in between have embraced the policy which is fully backed by Nautilus Marine.
The Used Boat Warranty from Nautilus Marine provides complete peace of mind to families who purchase a used boat or PWC from a participating marine dealer. Under this program, consumers are assured that they are not buying someone else’s problem boat.
The program is fully endorsed by the Boating Industry Association in Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. In NSW and Victoria the program is marketed under the banner of Boat Protection Plus and promoted by select dealers who have satisfied the rigorous requirements set down by Nautilus Marine.
Typical of the acceptance of the program is prominent Perth dealer All Boats Business. Dealership Principal Maz Yahiya said that the BIA Dealer Certified Used Boat Warranty is a quality product that the boat buying public deserve.
"This is a wonderful policy which delivers absolute peace of mind to boating families," Maz Yahiya said.
"The days of customers buying a used boat and then worrying whether or not they had bought trouble are finished and gone. This new policy means that our used boat customers leave this dealership knowing that they have a quality boat."
At All Boats Business, all used boats sold that are less than 15 years old are backed by the BIA Dealer Certified Used Boat Warranty. All these boats carry the 50 Point Safety Check logo indicating that the vessel has satisfied the stringent Nautilus Marine checking procedure.
In Sydney the situation is the same at Sydney Powerboat Centre with dealer principal Steve Arenson an enthusiastic supporter of the Boat Protection Plus program.
"Including the used boat warranty with a used boat makes the world of difference to boat buyers," said Steve Arenson.
"The confidence this gives customers is huge. Many first time boaters take to the water with a used boat, so buying a secondhand boat can be fraught with uncertainty. The strength of the used boat policy is that it is backed by a large and reputable company in Nautilus Marine. That in itself is a point of assurance."
