Frequently asked questions
How many recalls has Doggett Marine Ind had?
Doggett Marine Ind has one USCG recall on record: campaign 800193S from July 1980, affecting 52 Trophy 15 hulls for a flotation issue.
What models are affected by Doggett Marine Ind recalls?
Only the Trophy 15 model is affected, specifically units produced around the time of the 1980 flotation campaign.
What was the flotation recall about?
Campaign 800193S addressed a flotation deficiency, meaning the foam or materials intended to keep the boat afloat if swamped did not meet Coast Guard standards. The remedy typically involved adding or replacing flotation foam.

Most 1980 era recalls have been remedied by now, but you should still verify completion before purchase. If the remedy was skipped, the boat may not meet flotation safety standards, which affects insurability and resale value.
