I am one unhappy customer. I have a 2005 model with tower. The tower failed after about 6 months of ownership. The failure was a crack on one side of the tower at the hinge point just above where the large thumbscrews fit. After weeks of waiting the BRP authorised a warranty weld (I was not happy with this but what could I do I wanted to use the boat).
Then this year the tower failed again just below the old repair weld. It also partially failed on the other side at the same location. This was three months ago and BRP will not give a decision. I want a new tower because it seems like an engineering problem.
My dealer has another boat with the same problem. He did weld my boat back up so that I could use it - it looks horrible now. I have been told this is a Californian problem because no where else in the country are boats towed so far, maybe the roads here are worse to? Go figure.
I am about to write a stiff letter to my dealer (who I dont blame, he has done his best). If this doesn't work then I guess an attorney comes next.
I will never by a BRP product again - honest!
