Belmont Marine recalls
Belmont Marine boats have 1 recall campaign on record across 1 reported units. Below is every campaign, what it covers, and how to confirm a specific hull was fixed before you buy.
Belmont Marine has one recorded USCG recall campaign (01R0532S, issued November 2001) affecting a single unit of the model 20 I/O. The campaign addressed labeling deficiencies, specifically the capacity label and blower warning label, which are safety compliance requirements rather than structural or mechanical failures. For used buyers, this minimal recall history suggests limited systemic manufacturing issues, though verification of label corrections on any 2001 era 20 I/O remains prudent.
