I just picked up my 2018 C 242, and in going through the "literature bag", I note the following:
1) There was no GARMIN manual for my 7410 chartplotter. (I'm printing off the 68-page online manual now).
2) No Factory Warranty cards were included. How do I register all my mechanicals with their factory?
3) Why can't the factory simply hand-write down the Serial Number for all mechanicals (Inverter, Navigation, VHF, Battery Charger, etc) during installation to make future repairs and servicing SO MUCH easier for we consumers? Many of these will be VERY difficult for consumers to locate, and write down for future use.
Thanks.

Tom,

Your selling dealer should have all the serial numbers for the engine and bigger items such as AC or Gen if it has those items and would be the ones to register the warranty. On our side of things once there is a sold date in our database the warranty on the boat begins, which would cover electronics etc. If you can send me an email with your hull ID I might be able to track down some of the serial numbers you are looking for. My email is in my signature.

Thank you,
 
They did the same thing back in 2009 when we bought a new 2009 R25. Picking up a Cutwater 24 in a couple weeks and sad to think we will have the same issue all these years later.
