Post subject:  Cracks inside hull crossbar slips
I just had the thought to take pics inside the hull and I saw these cracks at the crossbar holes. Should I be concerned? The rest of the hulls look great from the outside.

I bought the 2002 Getaway this year. It was trailered when I got it and haven't ever pulled the hulls off the crossbars. Looks like there is an insert that is part of the hull but I don't know if that makes the cracks below a non-issue or not.

This does not appear to cause an issue over the years. The material that ends up coating the sleeve inserts is always minimal and is typically just the inner foam layer. I wouldn't worry about this.
