We Stand Behind Our Product
Your Hydrovane will handle a circumnavigation and more…
We have always told anyone who asked that we stand behind our product 100% and would do whatever is needed to rectify any problem – after all, our reputation depends on it.
We fully expect any properly installed Hydrovane to handle a circumnavigation with no major breakages from a normal operation and suffer only the standard wear.
We recommend carrying the ‘Offshore Spares Kit’ which includes replacements for the wear points (Vane Cover and Locking Pins. It also includes a Drive Sleeve and Bottom Bearing which may need replacement after 15,000nm or so).
Otherwise, after a circumnavigation, the complete unit should be as sound as when first acquired. We happily provide replacements at no cost for any breakages or faults that are a result of manufacturing deficiencies or failures in normal operation. Of course, damage caused by improper installation, collisions, impact from any source or extraordinary acts of nature are the responsibility of the owner. As well, depreciation from exposure to the elements and high usage are expected – but it will take years and thousands of miles for significant deterioration.
