    Has anyone seen this before? AR230 - 2005

    The guy selling me the boat said that it was a manufacturer's defect but I kinda doubt that.....He said that it just seemed too tight in there and it busted through but again that seems unlikely...any help would be awesome! Thanks! ( See attached pic)
