Not a defect. This is part of the normal molding process. A clump of material forms on the mold vent and drops into the hull. We sometimes grind a bit off if it is rough. |

Rather than mess with plastic welding that might turn out to be more problematic, why not lay on a couple of layers of Gorilla tape since this is the inside for the hull. |

Ask the warranty guys (via email provided earlier in PM) for a "hatch cut-out". 8" round should work. |

It just may be relative... the hulls are not consistent throughout. Many variations and places that would be more or less translucent. |
