I've had 2 cracks...if you get one in a bow concavity they automatically reinforce the other side now. Triumph also upgraded the scuppers and added a bow support at no charge. The first time, Triumph picked up my boat at my house and fixed it at the factory due to the dealer not experienced in the fix. I am waiting to pick my boat up next week for the 2nd crack. Hopefully the dealer has learned.

Don't sweat a crack too much. You just get a few gallons of water in the inner hull but absolutley no change in floatation or performance....of course you can seal it with Rule until winter, which is what I did. If this were fiberglass, well, you'd be in big trouble.

Cracks are not common and are easy to repair by a Master dealer.

I wouldn't loose too much sleep over the issue.
