I have another question...and it's not related to color.

I know there is a big debate on whether or not to get the surf pipe, but my question is if they are flawed from the factory? My dealer told me not to order one because the two he ordered in the past both had weld failures, practically sinking a new boat. He thought there may have been a bad batch??

I fall into the court of it being a must-have, but don't want to run the risk of it failing my first summer out.

Any opinions or experiences with the factory surf pipes?

Thanks!
