I suggest you sit down with a cup of coffee and review the conditions of the warranty, it is a contract and therefore enforcable. You will need to determine the conditions of the transfer, and use that document as your basis for discussion with the manufacturer.
On a side note, my 20 year old boat just started taking on rain water in the hull which leaked down past some fittings when I had the roof off. I fixed this by applying a single layer of fibreglass and epoxy over the entire deck.
I have a fiberglass boat that is probably 40 years old that seems to have the same problem. The past owner claimed that it got "sluggish" after a rain?????
Turns out that the floor is full of old screw holes and fitting spots that let the rain get between the floor and the hull. Due to design this water will only drain back to the sump when the boat is heeled over somewhat. After the snow goes I plan to do a bit of redesigning....
Hey Callatis, I appreciate you taking the boat to the dealer to have the situation looked at. I hope you have a successful boating season this year with your Legend Boat. Keep us updated on how your boat is running. Looking forward to seeing you on the water.Quote:

He encouraged me to check out all of the brands before I bought my used Legend last summer, and answered all of my questions thoroughly - and is still available whenever i need something.
I went with the 'peice of junk' because the quality was quite a bit better than the Legend of yesteryear, and it got me the most bang for my buck at the time. Nothing but good things to say.
Seems like the OP took the boat in, and they tried a solution.... Until he runs the boat this year, we wont know if its truly fixed....don't plan the lynching just yet...

Just a word of caution. Someone mentioned cutting into the foam. Don't do this. Depending the type of foam used, water can get in and waterlog it. You also alter the floatation of the boat and yes I know it only helps keep the boat from sinking but it is a very important safety aspect of the boat. If you ever get in that situation, you will appreciate your craft being there to hang on to!
The problem is in the name.... "Legend"
I agree, I have had a Legend for a few years now and I found the staff at the Barrie Dealership to be Great, from the moment I picked up the boat to any thing else I have needed. I had to take it in to fix up the weather top, as we had messed it up somehow, and they were great, got it right in and fixed up! and last year after racoons destroyed the interior, I took it right back to Barrie and they did a great job, and got it done fast so I was back out on the water.Quote:

Check your plumbing,I have the same issue of water showing up,and no holes in the boat...I checked the drain hose from the livewell,and it was good,now I'm thinking the hose from the aerator to the livewell is the culprit,I'll know this weekend
