That appears to be a defect in manufacturing. Looks like a blister/air pocket in the gelcoat that popped out.
Repair should be covered under warranty if it is what I think.

No, that boat is done for. I would drop it off at my house. I will give you a nice fresh new 2012 one...

Add it to your warranty lunch list and have the dealer fix it at the end of the season. For me, that's easier than dragging the boat 2+ hours and 7,000 feet down in elevation. For small things like that, I just live with them for the first season.
