By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms.

3. Private Seller Marketplace

The Site may include a Private Seller Marketplace where private sellers advertise vessels, trailers, or other marine-related items directly to prospective buyers.

Private Seller Marketplace listings are advertising listings only.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, ABB is not acting as broker, agent, dealer, representative, escrow provider, attorney, surveyor, lender, insurer, or advisor for either party in connection with a Private Seller Marketplace transaction.

Private Seller Marketplace sellers are subject to ABB’s Private Seller Marketplace Listing Agreement and Disclaimer.

Buyers who interact with Private Seller Marketplace listings may be subject to ABB’s Private Seller Marketplace Buyer Disclosure and Acknowledgment.

If there is any conflict between these Website Terms and an applicable marketplace-specific agreement or disclosure, the marketplace-specific agreement or disclosure will control with respect to that marketplace activity.

Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership interest in ABB intellectual property to a user.

18. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

19. No Waiver

ABB’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision or ABB’s right to enforce it later.

These Website Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional agreement applicable to a specific service or transaction, constitute the applicable agreement between you and ABB regarding your use of the Site.

Where a specific transaction or marketplace agreement contains terms that conflict with these general Website Terms, the specific agreement controls with respect to that transaction or service.
