Aquasport Division has two USCG safety recalls on record, affecting 33 boats built in the early to mid 1990s.

- Decode the HIN to confirm your boat's build year and check it against recall campaign 980155T (1998, 215 Dual Console ski pylon) or 930136T (1993, Teleflex steering).
- Request written proof of recall remedy completion from the seller, including invoices or dealer service records showing the affected component was replaced or repaired.
- Have a marine surveyor inspect the ski pylon mounting points on 215 Dual Console models and test steering response under load on any boat with a Teleflex helm from that era.
- Contact the manufacturer or a certified dealer with your HIN to verify recall status if the seller cannot provide remedy documentation.
