Anyone ever run into this issue? This is one of the seat scruppers on my replacement Revo hull. The scrupper plug leaks no matter how much I tighten it. Appears that the hole was repaired after the molding process. What you see is OEM. Not much fun sitting in water all day. Is this a defect that would be covered under warranty? The inside of this hull is bone dry but the scrupper looks like it is about to give out. Last pic is of the good scupper...

Discovered I had the same problem with the scupper hole on my new Revo the first time I took it out. Two thirds of the hole had defective molding, gasket would not seal properly. Told my dealer about it and he said "come on by and pick out a new Revo." Excellent customer service from Liquid Surf & Sail in Ft Walton Beach, FL. |

Scupper holes sometimes will get off center as shown during the de-molding process. This may not cause an issue where the hull would be scrapped. Having been repaired, trimmed or modified also would not be cause to scrap a hull if the function is still correct. A blem credit might be in order, but if leaking... that's not right. See your dealer. |
