Just bought a new Hobie Mirage Oasis and just looked at the hull and noticed two and one nickel size holes just in front of where the mirage drive are installed is this normal or a manufacturing/warranty issue?

found the answer: The white plugs are just small caps that Hobie install for cosmetic reasons over the insert that builds the structure to the front of the drive well - and the base of the sail / accessory mount.

These are caps over molded-in inserts. Two are related to drive well strength and the other farther forward is related to the accessory receiver.

Are the caps missing?

So out of the box the holes are visible or are there caps that get inserted?

The white caps are visible in your photos. This looks 100% stock standard / normal.
