Repair Legal Advice

NOT UP TO REPAIRS SCRATCH?

By Dr. Anthony Marinac, Solicitor Advocate

We all know that part of prudent boat ownership involves attending to routine maintenance on board your vessel, whether that involves repainting, engine maintenance, replacement of rigging, or any of a hundred other necessary (and usually expensive!) tasks. Worse still, sometimes vessels are involved in mishaps of one type or another, and require repairs. Often, those tasks involve engaging an external professional – or more – to perform the actual work on the boat. Usually, everything goes fine, and before you know it, you’re back on the water. Sometimes, though, maintenance is not properly completed, or repairs are not properly made, and you find yourself in a contract dispute. If this occurs, then without knowing it, you may find yourself to be under certain legal duties, even though you’re the innocent party.

WHAT IS THE DUTY TO MITIGATE? Simply put, the law says that in a contractual dispute, you cannot be compensated for any damage that you could have taken steps to avoid. So if someone does poor work on your boat, you are quite likely to be under a duty to engage another contractor to fix the problem left behind. If you don’t, then you won’t be able to claim compensation for any later harm. An example will help to illustrate the concept. Let us say that you have engaged a contractor to repair the seals on weather deck-level watertight hatches, because the seals have simply degraded with time. The contractor does not complete the work effectively, and the result is that the hatches do not seal. If, despite knowing this, you still used the vessel at sea, the contractor would not be liable for water damage to the interior of the vessel. The law will say that you knew about the defect in the seal, and so YOU — not the contractor — are responsible for the damage to the interior of the vessel.

WHAT CAN YOU DO? If you become aware that works on your vessel are not up to scratch, the first thing you should do is contact the contractor who performed the work. This is a relatively small industry, where reputation is everything. Often, if the contractor finds that the work is not up to scratch, it will be repaired without any further costs, no questions asked. If that doesn’t happen, though, the best things you can do are: ● First, send the contractor a letter or email, setting out the work they were asked to do, the price that you paid for the work, and the problems with the job as completed. If you can, attach photographs of the work. ● At the end of the letter, advise the contractor that if they don’t undertake the repairs, then you intend, at their expense, to have the repairs undertaken by another contractor. ● If the contractor doesn’t undertake the repairs, have the work undertaken by another contractor. You are entitled to choose the contractor, and you are entitled to choose what that contractor does, so long as your choices are reasonable. ● After the work is done, and you have paid for the work, forward the receipt to the original contractor, along with a demand for repayment of that amount. If they continue to refuse to meet their obligations, then it may be time for you to engage in legal action.

Unique Boat Lift for Residential and Commercial GOLDEN ELEVATOR

Local boat lifting specialists, Dockpro, now distribute the industry's best Golden Elevator Lifts® solution to Australian boat owners.

Golden Elevator Lifts® is a premium solution that can be used in the most extreme docking situations such as concrete canal walls, high fixed jetties or steep embankments. Guaranteed your boat will be lifted higher than ever. No matter the distance of the water level to the ground, your boat can easily be lifted up and down. The Golden Elevator Lifts® are ideally suited for water applications with great depths or sites where levels of water fluctuate.

The minimalist design makes it ideal for different boat styles and hull shapes. The degree of incline of the lifting system will be determined by your installation requirements. You don’t need to worry about weather, water conditions, or water depth. Suitable for many tricky locations, the Golden Elevator Lifts® offer great lift speed in tight or restricted places such as a narrow canal or at a location where you can’t have fixed pilings in the seabed or because of necessary permits, an embankment, a rock wall or a seawall. The Golden Elevator Lifts® allow boat lifting in impossible places. Manufactured in the USA, the Golden Elevator Lifts® are custom-built for your docking location. Built with maximum features, each component is welded for durability and strength, allowing weight capacity from 300kg to 27,000kg. In addition to clever design, Golden Elevator Lifts® are 6061 T-6 aluminum with stainless steel hardware. Their winders are solid aluminium with deep grooves and have a larger-than-average diameter for extended cable life. This contributes to greater lift speed. They don’t come close to exceeding the bending radius of the cable. You can be assured that your boat will sleep safe and sound because the Golden Elevator Lifts® utilise heavy-duty materials, wheels, and accessories. They feature stainless steel cables, wheel brackets, and axles, all used for a clean, safe, and strong build. Moreover, sacrificial metal anodes complete the boat lifts, serving as protection against electrolysis. Also contributing to the solid strength of Golden Elevator Lifts® is the use of 12 wheels with stainless steel equaliser brackets (versus the average 6, or fewer, of competitors), and welded box construction for drive connection to track beam. Carpeted bunk boards are also a standard feature. There are no higher-quality boat lifts than Golden Elevator Lifts®. The lifts are covered by the following warranties: 5 years on structural parts, 10 years on Golden Sea-Drive® Gear Reducer, and 2 years on all other parts. Built to withstand tough water conditions, like strong waves and currents, these systems can lift your boat higher in an unlimited water fluctuation environment. This means that boats are less likely to get damaged and require less maintenance and repair. The elevator boat lifts showcase a stylish, low-profile design that enables ultra-fast docking operations and accessibility to hull and prop.

DRIVE-BY-WIRE TECHNOLOGY

DF115BG / DF140BG FOUR-STROKE

FIRST IN THEIR CLASS OUTBOARDS

Suzuki Marine is recognised worldwide for making advanced technology and features available to boaters of all types - not just those who run the largest, highest-horsepower outboards. This tradition continues with Suzuki's DF115BG and DF140BG 4-stroke outboards, the first in their class to offer all the advantages of drive-by-wire technology.

By bringing its proven drive-by-wire technology to its 115HP and 140HP in-line four-cylinder models, Suzuki is providing simplified rigging for a wide range of boat builders, along with silky smooth shifting, instant throttle response, enhanced performance and superior fuel efficiency. The reliability and precision control of Suzuki's drive-by-wire technology has been proven for years on Suzuki's popular 150HP through 350HP models.

Enhancements to Suzuki's new DF115BG / DF140BG go far beyond the integration of drive-by-wire technology. An upgraded compression ratio of 10.6:1 helps these new 2.0-litre displacement outboards achieve better top speed and acceleration by improving thermal efficiency. Fuel efficiency has also been increased as compared to Suzuki's existing DF115A / DF140A models. Tests have demonstrated as much as 5% to 7% improvement for the DF140BG across mid-range to high-end cruising speeds, while the new DF115BG has demonstrated up to 5%-6% better fuel efficiency at cruising speed. Other improvements include a 40-amp alternator on both models that delivers improved output and better charging performance at low idle speeds - ideal for today's power-hungry fishing boats that spend a lot of time trolling. While much has changed under the cowl, some enhancements to the new DF115BG / DF140BG are obvious to the eye. The engine itself features a sporty, streamlined exterior design that looks great on centre consoles, flats skiffs, pontoon boats, walleye rigs, bass boats and more. With 20-inch (L) and 25inch (X) shaft lengths available, the new DF115BG / DF140BG outboards are an ideal power choice for a wide range of fresh and saltwater boats. Both new outboards boast new graphics and are available in Suzuki Pearl Nebular Black and new-for-2021 Super Cool White colour schemes.

The redesigned cowl also incorporates a new airintake structure with improved water separation and a silencer-resonator system to attenuate engine sounds and provide a pleasant boating experience at all engine speeds/RPM.

To make routine maintenance easier, Suzuki made it possible to replace the oil filter simply by removing the upper engine cover. A new Oil Spill Catcher surrounding the oil filter mount allows for changing the filter without making a mess. Suzuki also added an easy access Water Detection Fuel Filter to help protect the engine against contaminated fuel. Suzuki bring new technology and performance to this important class of outboard motor. These are not only the world's first 4-stroke outboards in their class to include factory drive-by-wire technology; they feature a new design, a new look and enhanced performance for a wide range of boats around the world. In the Suzuki tradition, they have delivered what the market and boat builders have told them they want..

GO GREEN AND KEEP YOUR FUEL CLEAN WITH Fuel Doctor

With thirty years of industrial and commercial fuel tank cleaning under our belt, Fuel Doctors have seen it all when it comes to the contaminants that migrate from bunkered fuel and fungal material that germinate within fuel tanks. The main culprit to ruin your day on the water is that unwelcome Latin parasite Cladosporium Resinae (Clad), or as the marine industry call it ‘Black Death’, parasite because he feeds on your fuel and can drain your wallet of thousands of dollars in mechanical repairs by prematurely and catastrophically damaging fuel pumps and injectors, due to suspended contaminants within the fuel, compounded by the excruciating financial pain of cleaning fuel tanks that were never engineered or designed with appropriate access for cleaning. All boat fuel systems are continually at risk of contamination due to the very environment they operate in, Clad is the result of air-borne soil spores that are attracted to hydrocarbon fuels, entering the fuel tank via vents, any surface area not covered by fuel in a fuel tank will heat up during the day expand and exit the vent, at night the opposite takes place with the tank sucking in spores and moisture in the form of condensation.

The spores remain dormant in the fuel and will only germinate in the presence of water, from which they derive oxygen, once germinated they convert minerals and trace elements in the fuel to yeasts from which they feed and excrete, clad being the same family as brewer’s and baker’s yeasts thrive on heat, diesel engines return up to five litres a minute to the fuel tank at 120 degrees centigrade creating the perfect environment for colonies of fungal material to thrive and grow into dense sticky matts. The majority of fair-weather sailors never encounter clad, however those who venture into big swells can tell you stories of changing blocked fuel filters, whilst being thrown around a stinking hot engine room with the vessel at the mercy of prevailing winds and current, whilst the second mate vents her anger and distrust in you, your boat and your lack of preventative maintenance. Fuel contamination issues are addressed by administering chemicals into the tank to try and fix the problem or having someone come and polish your fuel. Clad feeds from minerals and trace elements contained within hydrocarbon fuels, 99.9% of the additives that claim to fix your problem are hydrocarbon based, consequently secondary hydrocarbons added to your tank are going to give clad an entrée or desert to continue multiplying, fuel polishing simply polishes your wallet, as filters are designed to catch solids and pass liquids, emulsified fuel containing water and clad is 99% liquid which passes through the filters. The facts water weighs 1 kg per ltr, Diesel 840 grams, Petrol 740 grams and Clad 1 Kg per cubic mtr, physically clad is similar to fairy floss extremely light and sticky, so it sticks to the walls, baffles and floors of your tanks, polishing entails suction and return via a filter bank into your tank, when out in swells clumps of clad get washed into the fuel (diesel & petrol’s) with a portion entering your fuel filter, when moored there is no agitation within the tank consequently clad reattaches its sticky slimy mass back on the walls, baffles and floor where it is now inaccessible to the polishing media, consequently the only thing that has been polished is your wallet. Fuel Doctors thirty years of daily combat with Cladosporium Resinae ensures you get the ultimate best advice, service and in house proprietary developed chemical solutions. www.fueldoctors.com.au
