Well it wasn't a good weekend for me. Nothing to do with LOTO, just spent a lot of time on the boat this weekend so we noticed more things and had a case of bad luck.
Checklist:
Had a gust of wind catch the bimini when we pulled out of Brostock & ripped the fabric right off the frame. It sunk so fast that we lost the entire thing except for the frame that was locked in on the front. This is the second issue I've had with the company that did the factory's Sunbrella stitching (1st time was a section on the cover).
Driver's seat is loose. Every nut on it has started to loosen. It doesn't appear to have ever had any locktite on it. Poor planning. I wonder what else didn't get locktite that I should start looking for.
Front Starboard Cleat came loose at some point. We just noticed it when we went to hook up. I have no idea how long it's been loose since we don't ever tie up to anything until now. The gelcoat was also chipped a little surrounding the area.
All of our aux stereo inputs are loose - both USB & 1 stereo input.
Got the replacement tower lights sent to me, but the front screws were too long. The back screws held it snug, but it's there so I figured it can be finished now.
The front Port Side seat has a big gap when it's closed. Any time it rains or splashed pretty good, water gets inside the compartment.
I know they'll make it right, but it's just frustrating to say the least when we were hoping to spend the whole weekend on the water. The little things drove me nuts enough to just call it a day.
