Frequently asked questions
What boats are affected by the Momarsh Inc recall?
Campaign 15CG046S covers 342 units of the 12' FG DUCK model due to a level flotation defect. The recall was issued in November 2016.
What is the flotation defect in recalled Momarsh boats?
The level flotation system in affected 12' FG DUCK boats may not meet Coast Guard standards, potentially preventing the boat from remaining afloat if swamped or capsized.
How do I check if a used Momarsh boat was recalled?
Get the hull identification number (HIN) from the seller and contact Momarsh Inc or search the USCG recall database to confirm whether that specific hull is among the 342 units in campaign 15CG046S.
Should I buy a Momarsh boat that was part of the recall?
Only if you can verify the remedy was completed and have a surveyor confirm the flotation system meets Coast Guard requirements. An unrepaired flotation defect is a serious safety hazard.
