Axis Wakeboard Boat Forum

Here are some of the cracks. The are very hairline and hard to see but doesn't mean they aren't there. Not stoked.

Have you ever tightened the bolts? I wonder if it's over tightened. Good luck getting it straightened out.

Never touched those bolts, I've only got 70 hours on the boat. Submitted to shop yesterday... I'll let you guys know what they say.

That's crazy. I've looked at all the bolts now and then to check to make sure they're tight and they're on good. I'm thinking what Ferral said with overtightened by factory.

I need to check mine with all the speakers up on the tower.

They are claiming that it's not very uncommon to see stress cracks in the gel-coat on boats and that there is no structural damage. That being said, it's supposed to be covered by warranty within the first year. Found it with 2 weeks to spare so they better be covering it. More to come.

I have a 2013 a20 with 26 hrs on it and just noticed a small crack under drivers side tower should I be concerned. I mean I just spent 55000 on it and it only has 26 hrs on it. A little pissed, taking to the dealer this weekend for service

My dealer told me its just a stress crack in the gel coat and nothing structural. It's covered under warranty and they are supposed to fix mine next week when I take it in to get serviced. I would just get your claim filed right away and take pictures.

I've had stress cracks in almost every boat I've owned, except for my A22, including a VLX, XStar, 3 230's. I agree that they should be covered under warranty, but it's not structural.

Just wanted to leave a follow-up on this situation. I am picking my boat up today from the dealer and the cracks have all been repaired under warranty. Took a couple weeks to deal with but at least its fixed.
