Frequently asked questions
Which ALEXANDRIA SEAPORT FOUNDATION models were recalled?
Two models appear in USCG recall records: the BEVIN'S SKIFF rowboat kit (campaign 10R4097S) and the CHALLENGE WHERRY (campaign 10V230). Each campaign affected a single unit.
What was wrong with the recalled ALEXANDRIA SEAPORT FOUNDATION boats?
Campaign 10R4097S addressed hull identification number compliance and safe loading capacity labeling on the BEVIN'S SKIFF kit. Campaign 10V230 cited a defect on the CHALLENGE WHERRY but USCG records do not specify the nature of the issue.
How do I know if my used ALEXANDRIA SEAPORT FOUNDATION boat is affected by a recall?
Compare your hull identification number against the affected units listed in USCG campaigns 10R4097S and 10V230. Because each campaign involved only one unit, the likelihood of encountering an affected boat is low, but verification is still prudent.
Are ALEXANDRIA SEAPORT FOUNDATION recalls a red flag for buyers?
Two recalls on small craft kits is a minimal compliance history. The issues were administrative (labeling and hull identification) rather than structural or safety critical defects, so this record does not signal systemic quality problems.
