The “Hull Identication Number” located on the
starboard side of the transom, is the most important
identifying factor and must be included in all
correspondence and orders. Failure to include it
creates delays. Also of vital importance are the
engine serial numbers and part numbers when
writing about or ordering parts for your engine. Refer
to the Engine Operator’s Manual for locations of
engine serial numbers and record them for future
reference.
7. ManufacTurers cerTificaTion
As a boat manufacturer, Baja builds their products
to guidelines established under the Federal Boat
Safety Act of 1971. The Act is promulgated by the
United States Coast Guard who has authority to
enforce these laws on boat manufacturers that sell
products in the United States. Baja ensures that all
of its products comply with these laws.
The NMMA, National Marine Manufacturers
Association, provides Baja with a third party
certification. The NMMA is an organization
that represents the marine industry and assists
manufacturers, boat dealers, marinas, repair yards,
and component suppliers in areas of legislation,
environmental concerns, marine business growth,
and state and federal government agency interaction.
The third party certication that Baja participates in
uses the well known Standards and Recommended
Practices of the ABYC American Boat and Yacht
Council.
Baja Marine Corporation participates extensively
in the American Boat and Yacht Council which is a
nonprot organization that develops and publishes
voluntary standards and recommended practices for
boat and equipment design, construction, service,
and repair. We utilize all applicable ABYC standards
in the construction of your Baja boat.
Finally, Baja sells their products world wide and
as such must conform to the various rules and
regulations required by other countries. Most
notably, are the ISO standards in Europe which
require the application of the CE (Common
European) mark. This mark, much like the NMMA
certication in the U.S., gives you, the boat owner,
specic information concerning your craft.
