Has anyone purchased or considered purchasing an extended warranty for their Ranger Tug? After we bought the boat I contacted Cummins/Mercruiser and was told they do not sell an extended warranty for the QSD engine, though they do for their others:: Cummins MerCruiser Diesel (CMD) ENCOMPASS Parts, Labor, & Travel Plan for High Output
Recreational Engines (Plan) is available for QSB, QSC, QSL, and QSM Engines with a High Output (HO) Rating marketed under the trademark Cummins MerCruiser Diesel (CMD) and used in recreational marine applications anywhere in the world where CMD-approved service is available. This Plan covers any failure of the Engine which results, under normal use and service, from a defect in CMD material or factory workmanship (Covered Failure). Coverage begins on the expiration of the Base Engine Warranty period and ends on the date or hours designated.
First of all I find this pretty bad service from Cummins (sorry, but what else is new), selling an engine with outrageous repair parts pricing and not even trying to back up the engine with a additional warranty!
I do know there are some companies that sell an aftermarket warranty that covers various ship's systems like the engine, generator, a/c, etc but they are quite pricey, and must be purchased within 8 or 9 months of your boat purchase.
So, anyone purchased or researched this?
Thanks, again
