Differences Between Manufacturer and Extended Boat Warranty
A manufacturer boat warranty is included with a new boat and covers defects in materials and workmanship for a limited time, typically a few years. An extended warranty is an optional, paid service contract that continues or expands coverage after the factory warranty expires. The main difference is that manufacturer warranties are short-term and included, while extended warranties provide longer-term protection for mechanical issues at an added cost.
