very step of design and construction to assure you of many pleasure-filled years of yachting.

ainship Corporation was formed in 1977 and soon outgrew the existing facilities. A new plant was built in Marlboro,

J and was home to Mainship until 1992 when it was moved to St. Augustine, FL. Over 1200 of the traditionally

tyled cruisers were built before Mainship began building a European inspired line of cruisers in 1988. The new boat line did well for several years, but Mainship's real destiny was to return to the trawlers that made them famous. In 1994, the first new Trawler, a 35" sedan was introduced and the market accepted the new breed with enthusiasm

Today, Mainship Corporation is the leading manufacturer of production trawlers building 6 different models with many more on the drawing boards. Production is split between the St. Augustine facility it shares with the Luhrs

orpoation.

1.5 Equipment Manufacturer Manuals

ainship purchased various equipment and compo-

nts from other manufacturers and installed them on our boat while it was being built. Examples include the ngines, pumps, and the generator. Most OEMs (Original

Equipment Manufacturers) have provided operation and

aintenance manuals for your boat’s equipment. Keep

EM manuals with your Mainship Operator's Manual in a

afe and accessible place. Be sure to pass them alon

to the new owner if you sell your boat.

NOTE: The OEM manuals take precedence over the Mainship Operator's Manual. If information in the Mainship Operator's Manual differs from that in the OEM manuals, follow the information in the OEM manuals.

1.6 Warranties

Nearly all OEM equipment has its own limited warranties. Warranty registration cards are in your Operator’s

acket. ocate and read the individual warranties; put them

together for easy, future reference

or international owner's; your warranty can be found in

our CE compliant Owner's Manual.

1.8 Manufacturers Certifications

As a boat manufacturer Mainship builds their products to

uidelines established under the Federal Boat Safety Act of 1971. The act is promulgated by the U.S. Coast Guard who has authority to enforce these laws on boat manufacturers that sell products in the United States. Mainship

nsures that all of it's products comply with these laws. The NMMA, National Marine Manufacturers Association,

provides Mainship with a third party certification. The

MMA is an organization that represents the marine industry and assists manufacturers, boat dealers, marinas, repair yards and component suppliers in areas of legislation, environmental concerns, marine business

rowth, and state and federal government agency interaction. The third party certification that Mainship participates in, uses well known Standards and Recommended

ractices of the ABYC, American Boat and Safety Council.

We at Mainship participate extensivel which is all non-pro voluntary standards and recommended practic-

s for boat and equipment design, construction, service and repair. We utilize all applicable ABY

tandards in the construction of Mainship boats. Finally Mainship sells their products worldwide, and as

uch must conform to the various rules and regulations required by other countries. Most notably are the I

tandards in Europe which require the application of the

E (Common European) mark. This mark, much like the NMMA certification here in the U.S., gives you the boat owner specific information concerning your boat.

it, and develops and publishes

in the ABYC,

or U.S. and non-EU compliant countries, your warranty info can be found in the Warranty section, chapter 3 of the Operator's Manual.

Mainship 40 Trawler Single & Twin • Documents, and Forms

Your Mainship dealer completes the Pre-Delivery Inspection Report (See Warranty Section) before you take delivery of your boat. It is the dealer’s responsibility to both you and to Mainship to give your boat a final inspection. The purpose of this inspection is to assure proper adjustment and operation of the entire vessel. "Your dealer should provide you with the Pre-

Delivery Inspection Report at the time of delivery."

"Mainship will not pay warranty costs for items that should have been covered in the pre-delivery service inspection and recorded on the Pre-Delivery Inspection Report."

Owners must coordinate with the dealer to insure Mainship warranty registration is completed and returned to Mainship.

2.1. Records

Inserted at the end of this section are several records you will find helpful.

Use the BOAT RECORD (Fig. 2.2) to record all important information about your boat and its equipment. After your dealer has recorded all the information, remove the record from your Owner’s Manual and store in a safe place. Do not keep this form aboard your boat.

The FLOAT PLAN (Fig. 2.4) 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 phone numbers in case your return is delayed past the expected time. It also has space for indicating information about the person filling the report. Leave the completed form ashore with a responsible person. We recommend you make several copies of this form each boating season to make sure you have a good supply.

2.2 Accident Reports

No one likes to think about having a boating accident, but boating accidents do happen. You must file an accident report after a boating accident just as you must file an accident report after an automobile accident. A copy of the U.S. Coast Guard Accident Report is included at the end of this section. You can get more copies of the report by calling the U.S. Coast Guard Boating Safety Hotline at 1-800-368-5674.

You must file this report with the U.S. Coast Guard within 48 hours after an accident resulting in one of the following:

A person disappears from a vessel under circum-

• stances that indicate death or injury

Personal injury requiring medical treatment beyond

• first aid

Damage to the vessel or property damage

• Complete loss of the vessel

•

State statutes determine whether you must file an accident report in this case. An accident report must be filed if the damage exceeds a threshold dollar value as established by the states, the threshold is $100-$200. Call the Boating Safety Hotline (800-368-5647) to verify the threshold for a particular state.

For all other accidents, you must file the report within 10 days.

Note: State and local agencies may also have accident reporting requirements. Check with local enforcement agencies or with your local Mainship dealer regarding local requirements.

The MAINTENANCE LOG (Fig 2.5) helps to keep maintenance records in one place. Using this log will allow you to track maintenance work that has been completed and to determine when maintenance is required. Your dealer will also find this information helpful. If you decide to sell your boat, the maintenance record will make your boat seeable because it tells prospective buyers that you have taken good care of your boat.

2.3 Specifications and Drawings

All Mainship boats are built in compliance with applicable United States Coast Guard regulations and recommendations at the time of construction. Mainship boats comply with the standards developed by the National Marine Manufactures Association for its Boat Certification Program.

The locator drawings will help you find the location of devices and equipment.

Note: Efforts have been made to make the drawings in this manual consistent with production. However, in the effort to improve this vessel, modifications have been made in the design that may date some of the drawings in this manual.

On the next few pages you will find sample forms for some of the issues dealing with your new boat. Familiarize yourself with these forms, use them, they can be very handy

MAINSHIP CORPORATION LIMITED WARRANTY

According to the U.S. Public Law No. 93-637, effective July 4, 1975: The following limited warranties apply to all 2008 Model Year boats produced my MAINSHIP CORPORATION.

LIMITED ONE YEAR WARRANTY

Mainship Corporation (“Mainship”) warrants to the first-use purchaser and any subsequent registered owner during the warranty period, that any part manufactured by Mainship in its 2008 Model Mainship Yacht purchased from an authorized Mainship Dealer will be free of defects caused by faulty workmanship or materials for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of delivery to the first-use purchaser, provided the part is properly used and maintained and subject to the following exclusions, limitations, and conditions. As the sole and exclusive remedy, Mainship’s obligation under this warranty is limited to repair or replace any such defective part.

LIMITED FIVE YEAR BOTTOM BLISTER WARRANTY

Mainship warrants to the first-use purchaser and any subsequent registered owner during the warranty period that the boat will be free from gelcoat blistering on underwater, exterior gelcoat surfaces of the hull, for a period of five (5) years from the date of delivery to the first-use purchaser, provided the hull has been properly used and maintained and subject to the following exclusions, limitations, and conditions. During this period, Mainship will supply or reimburse an authorized Mainship Dealer the parts and labor required to repair a blistered underwater surface of the hull. It is recommended that the blister repair be done during a seasonal haul out for service or storage.

The following will void this bottom blister limited warranty: (1) If the hull gelcoat has been sanded, sandblasted, and subjected to abrasion, impact or damage and/or such conditions being repaired. (2) If Mainship’s required bottom preparation procedures described in the Mainship Owner’s Manual are not followed. (3) If the hull gelcoat has been altered in any way by repairs or coatings other than the proper application of antifouling bottom paint.

CONDITIONS ON THE APPLICABILITY OF LIMITED WARRANTY COVERAGE

The limited warranties contained herein apply only to covered defects first arising and reported in writing to Mainship or its authorized dealer within the applicable warranty coverage. If the Mainship Yacht is used for commercial, rental, charter or any other non-consumer, individual or recreational services, then the above warranty periods are limited to sixty (60) days from the date of purchase. These limited warranties shall not be effective unless the Mainship warranty registration form and pre-delivery service record are duly completed and signed by the first-use purchaser within ten (10) days of the date of delivery of a Mainship Yacht. The warranty registration form and the pre-delivery service record must be returned to Mainship, and they must be appropriately completed and signed by both the authorized Mainship Dealer and owner. Warranty coverage shall not be initiated until the completed form is received at Mainship. The Mainship Dealer is responsible for submitting the warranty registration form and pre-delivery service record to Mainship.

The Mainship Dealer is to be used by the Mainship Yacht owner for reporting, claiming, and receiving any warranty service from Mainship. All repairs covered by these limited warranties must be pre-approved by Mainship. Normally, all repair requests and approvals are to be communicated through an authorized Mainship Dealer. To obtain warranty service for your Mainship Yacht, including any allegedly defective part, you, as owner, must make a specific and detailed claim in writing to an authorized Mainship Dealer within the applicable warranty period. Warranty repairs may be performed at the authorized Mainship Dealers servicing location or at an otherwise Mainship approved servicing facility at Mainship’s discretion. The owner is responsible for all expenses associated with transporting the Mainship Yacht and/or the defective part to and from the Mainship selected service location. Mainship may also, at its option, choose to conduct any repairs or replacements at the Mainship plant. If repairs or replacements are determined to be performed at the Mainship plant, then the transportation costs to and from the Mainship plant are the obligations of the owner.

The Mainship Yacht owner shall report to Mainship any Mainship Dealer failures in the performance of warranty repairs.

The sole and exclusive remedy under this warranty, including any applicable implied warranty, is the repair or replacement as determined by Mainship at its option of defects in materials and workmanship covered by the limited warranties. The labor cost reimbursement will be based on the Labor Allowance Schedule established by Mainship from time to time. Repairs are not to be performed by a non-Mainship Dealer and the repair cost MUST be authorized by Mainship in advance and be based on a reasonable number of hours as determined by Mainship. Transportation, hauling, launching, bottom paint, storage, dockage, cradling rental, rigging and de-rigging, or other similar costs are not part of Mainship’s obligation under the limited warranties and shall not be paid for by Mainship.

OWNER’S PROBLEM WITH WARRANTY SERVICE

Generally speaking, the owner of the authorized dealership, which is an independent contractor of Mainship, is in the very best position to assist you because of their familiarity with the warranty work that was performed on your behalf. In addition, Mainship expects its dealers to be concerned with your continued satisfaction and, as a result, should be given an opportunity to provide that assistance.

If, after contacting the dealer in writing and you, as the ﬁ rst-use purchaser or registered subsequent owner, are unhappy with the dealer’s response or if you feel that you require any further assistance, please write to the address below. In communicating to Mainship, please provide Mainship with a copy of the warranty claim which is the subject of your need for assistance, and any correspondence which you exchanged with the dealer. Please be certain that the forwarded information includes your hull identiﬁ cation number and name as well as the hours of usage on your en- gines. If at all possible, provide a chronological description of the problems which you confronted as well as the repair attempts. Include the dealer name and dealer personnel consulted. It is much appreciated if you would concisely describe your problem or question and any comments that you might have regarding the dealer’s efforts to conduct the repair. Upon receipt of your correspondence, Mainship will begin its analysis and investigation into the circumstances. Mainship may contact you directly and the dealer if any further information is necessary. Mainship will also contact the dealership so as to assist both the dealer and you in resolving the question or concern.
