    I keep staring into that glossy reflective hull... Can you say 'shiny!'
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    My replacement parts from SC arrived in like 2 days, but I didn't have a chance to pick them up from the dealer until this week. Still blown away by the awesome service!

    Have you found any small cracks in the gelcoat where the rear towbar was mounted, and where the wakeplate was mounted? I would think that the way they were both deformed, gelcoat damage could be a possibility.

    I also installed the Samson tower mirror arm. It's like 12" too short for my liking, but better than nothing...

    I do like the quick-release, which allows the bracket to fold off to the side;

    There is a very slight amount of stress cracking in the back on the top cap, to see it you have to shine a flashlight and look at the reflections. The green was unscathed, which is amazing. I'll have it fixed, likely in the fall.

    Good that you catch them now, and not later if they were to unknowingly spread and become worse.
