I can't win it seems.

Yesterday I pulled my turf. Found a crack in the tray and one of the pump mounts was broken, the bolt was gone.
I think I have that part handled thanks to a fellow members help.

Tonight I was messing with a new flame arrestor, and found half of a bolt in the bottom of the hull.

There's not much I can do about it, until I find new exhaust.
But can anyone tell me how this could have happened???

I haven't touched any of those bolts in the 6 months I've owned the ski.

Any wisdom would be helpful, I'm even fine with a good ole fashion guess!

I'm assuming the other two things...LOL...

I like how nobody has an explaination for my problems. That always makes me feel better. :ugh:

Just a generic crack. I haven't had to repair one of these before, but I think I did an ok job, thanks to Idok for the help.
I ground down the gel about 1.5" all the way around the crack , mixed up some resin, added 3 layers of cloth, let it dry and done. :dunno:

No pics of the repair...

Oh, ok... I guess i'm good. Only other thing besides what you've listed, the hold downs for the straps and thats it. But I think you already had those pulled.

Actually, the bolts that hold the pump in... if you have any that are longer... maybe, 5mm longer I could use two. If not, its no big deal. I can probably find them locally.
