sure do, somthing must be wrong with your particular boat or you just beat the **** out of it. Aluminium does fatigue over time but stress cracks are very un common, it would be my opinion that you got a lemon that was built with a bad batch of aluminium. Funny how my boat has had zero issues and i fish some big water with large waves.

[QUOTE=Gilby Clarke;1473360]Spoke to the guy again today. Actually it was fifteen 'cracks' that needed repaired, not a dozen like I previously reported. Don't know if it cracked in the 'HAZ', or the weld itself, so go ahead and take your break. The cracks ranged in size from two inches to one that was just over fifteen inches.

Do aluminum welds flex easily without cracking?[/QUOTE]

[B]It always a "quest" that complains the most.
Send pictures.
It's not even [U]your [/U]boat!
Not to say it can't happen, but Lunds and other boats
have been sent back to the factory for repair, but no one
harps on it like these guys do. Maybe the same "guest"
just changes his handle.
My laptop is getting cracks from responding.[/B]:duel:

I took a ride in a Polar Kraft last weekend and was very impressed with the ride and overall layout. Crestliners do look like a nice setup also.

Due to the bashing of people who do not want to sign in, which is allowed on this site, this thread is being moved to the boneyard.

If you can't discuss things in a civil manner without attacking other folks, please do not respond.
