The USCG Recall
Database is not a searchable one, even though you may think so from the title. It
may, however, be worth the effort to page through the table to see if you find anything
unusual that could apply to a boat you're about to purchase or one you already own. When
you click on the link to the database you will receive a page that looks similar to the
partial list below:
US Coast Guard Office of Boating
Safety
Recreational Boating Product Assurance Division
Data Base Index / Search Page
The Recreational Boating Product Assurance Division databases contains information on
manufacturer recalls of recreational boats and associated equipment administered by the U.
S. Coast Guard. These recalls were for safety defects and non-compliance only, and do not
include any other recalls the manufacturer may have conducted for other purposes such as
manufacturer warranty recalls. Safety defects are those items that can occur substantially
without warning and create a substantial risk of personal injury.

entry for "Sea Ray". You can then "Find Next" to find the next
instance and continue until you don't find any more instances.
