The absurdity of it all is that the boat doesn't know it's not supposed to break down because it has a new owner. The boat knows that it's a 8 year old boat with X hours on it, it's a bit tired as most 8 year old boats are. It decides to break down which is basically a boat's job to do, I really think that when a boat is created one of it's objectives is to break down and cause tons of money to be exchanged between different parties. Anyway the boat is dumb and doesn't realize that it's been sold and is not supposed to break down 4 hours into a new ownership. It merely thinks that "I'm getting tired and I need to let go a bit" and bingo...it's fulfilled one of it's objectives.
Now enter into this equation a person who doesn't care to acknowledge that purchasing an older boat is risk in itself and because it broke down somehow it's someone else's fault...for whatever reason. And now he posts a thread on how a dealer sold a boat, a used somewhat tired boat and that they are responsible for it's well being after the sale. Just wondering when the cut-off is for "goodwill" 4 hours...4 days...4 weeks...4 months?

Just started reading, then stopped, To many pages. But just to be clear there is NO lemon law on boats anywhere I know of, Definitely not in New York though. Cars yes, but these are very specific laws also, and DO NOT carry over to boats. If anything a boat dealer would be responsible to have the boat in safe operating condition at the time of sale. And as-is in this case is exactly that as-is.
