Raymarine customers benefit from new Extended Warranty programme, giving three years peace of mind

 Raymarine’s commitment to excellence in service standards and customer support is being further enhanced with its new three year Extended Warranty programme. Starting from 1^st January 2011 all new products will be eligible for a three year warranty at no additional cost; users simply need to register their new products online at www.raymarine.com/warranty and the standard two year warranty is automatically extended by a further 12 months free of charge. This new Extended Warranty programme demonstrates Raymarine’s confidence in the high standards of quality and reliability that have been designed into its products across the board.    

 Raymarine specialises in developing products specifically for the marine environment, combining industry-leading technology with intuitive robust design.  As part of the new product development cycle all products  are required  to pass extensive destruction testing at Raymarine’s in-house test facilities – where they are shaken, baked, frozen and deluged – prior to on-the-water trials by a specialist fleet of testers around the world and on board Raymariner, the company’s dedicated test boat.  This attention to every detail – from the smallest internal component to the largest colour screen or product casing – ensures that Raymarine’s products are completely fit for purpose and able to withstand the punishing conditions they are subjected to at sea.  

 Chris Jones, Director of Product Management, said; “We are delighted to be able to offer an extended warranty to 36 months, which gives buyers complete peace of mind that their purchase is fully protected.  By registering at the web site, users will not only get the additional 12 months warranty, but they can also discover a host of additional benefits including Raymarine’s interactive knowledge bank, dynamic information management for users’ questions and answers, and top tips on using their Raymarine equipment.”
