Have you talked to your dealer. Seems weird that it wouldn't be covered under warrenty. Good luck, hope you get it resolved.

If you read the warranty of most boat builders, Gel is excluded.

A friend with a Ski Nautique had his gelcoat "bubble" around the waterline. They gave him a brand new boat to replace the old one. That's standing behind your product.

Thats how a customer should be treated, swapping him out for a new one might be a little extreme but i bet he will buy another one and tell everyone he knows to buy that brand...

Has the manufacturer or dealer offered anything at all for goodwill? I work for a major auto manufacturer and beyond warranty there is what we call a "goodwill" fund for customers who may not technically be covered under warranty but who, clearly, deserve to be treated the right way. The "right way" is a common sensical thing.
