Going to venture to guess this was wet slipped? See it all the time with wet slipped boats that don't have a bottom coat.

Same issue with mine 2022 AR 212 XD purchased at a dealer in Quebec paint Bubbles throughout the hull only had the boat for 3 months... dealer is telling me that they are starting to have a lot morcoming in as boats are being pulled out of the water

Dealer said Yamaha will take care of it but they are trying to figure out the best course of action supposedly its with Yamaha Japan now due to how wide spread this issue is.

I'm completely unhappy with this situation Yamaha should reimburse us our money back this is completely unacceptable to have such a problem....

Luckily caught within the first 12 months or Yamaha would have likely bucked covering the fix.

On a similar but much less severe note, they took care of a few gel coat cracks that I reported and took pictures of within the first year of ownership. Nothing like all those bubbles of course, but at least they did cover it. And lucky for me I documented the issue with the dealer via emails and it was on a couple work orders, because my dealer never addressed it in the first year, and when I brought it up as having not been fixed after the first off-season, yamaha tried to initially deny the claim since they thought it was reported after the manufacturer warranty had expired. Always good to document everything in writing and with pics/vids if possible. Saved me a few times!
