Warrior 175 Owners - Urgent

[Brian]

Just saw this on another site.

 

ALL owners of Warrior 175's are to be supplied with a new Owners Manual and a Safety Alert regarding Water Ingress.
It is important that anybody who purchased their boat 2nd hand makes contact with Paul on 01772-459666 or e-mail him at info@warriorboats.co.uk.He will then ask you for the unique hull number which is
immediately below the rubbing band on the starboard side of the transom. You will also be asked to provide you full postal address so that the manual & alert can be posted to you.
Warrior Boats are keen to track down all 175's since production started so please spread the word far and wide to all your friends that own a Warrior 175 so that everybody gets a new Owners Manual & Safety Alert.

Brian,

 

Can you email the 175 owners in the club? Such as Duncan.

Thanks Rob - although Brian's right to post this, to raise awareness, it is several months old. The new manual simply identifies the need to effectively seal the transom hatch with PU sealant if it's removed.

Some 175s have suffered galvanic corrosion of the built-in alloy fuel tank due to these inspection hatches leaking after being removed.

Warrior has been offering a free check & tank housing upgrade for the last year. Mine has been done & all owners contacted if they bought their boats direct. The bulletin is to sweep up any second hand sales.

Sounds to me like Jolly good service again from Warrior.

 

I found them very helpful when I had my 165.

Absolutely Jim, they've done their best with an unfortunate situation. Most boats checked and / or modified now I believe.
