I love my new boat! I bought a 2006 215CC at the beginning of this year, and now have 22 hours on it.

I have a laundry list of warranty issues that I've had from the beginning, but I've been too busy enjoying boating to bring it in so far. They're all minor, but definitely quality control issues nonetheless:

1) Cross support/handle under mega hatch is cracked next to screw - looks like it may have cracked during initial install.

2) Helm console panel is cracked, again at several points next to screws.

3) Fuel gauge jumps up and down by half a tank, even on dry land.

4) Some fish box gaskets are falling off.

5) Three out of four fix boxes drain poorly, one of which doesn't drain at all.

6) Two of three helm drains barely work, one of which I would describe as a pinhole drain that gets plugged up by a single dust particle.

7) Trailer was completely miswired. It wasn't even close - left turn signal caused running lights to blink, there was no right turn signal, etc. I've already fixed this.

8) Nav light button fell off control panel during second outing. We haven't been out at night yet to use it, so it must have been partially broken already.

I know that's quite a list, but again none of these issues are major. That's why I've been so reluctant to bring the boat in. I'd rather use it!


I'll probably take it in this weekend. I need to repair my skeg anyway, it had a few run-ins with shallow water.
