Anyone know how long this will take? How long it took from the ones that have sent theirs back?

It is going back because the trailer bunks rubbed completely through the gel coat into the glass on the bottom of the hull. The bunks do not match the profile of the hull on the new hull design. Only the two outside edges of the 2x4 touch the hull and that is what did the damage. The bunks need to be curved to match the hull.

That sucks, how did you figure this out?
I have a black hull and noticed a decent amount of rubbing...bunch of white scratches....brought it back to bass pro they told me it was because of the sand in my carpet bunks....theres a Nitro facebook page where many guys were also complaining of the same issue....Im going to keep an eye on it, but I think any black hull will show some wear....obviously your situation is much different....hopefully they make it right and don't take too long

Hope they did your better than the repairs they made on mine. My 17 z19 is going back for the third time. Same spot same thing again. For the love of god they better not throw more clear coat on it and send it back so it can crack and chip out again.
I got my boat back on Friday 11/30018 two months and one day after they got it. It looks great. Everything repaired. Only thing is they put new flat bunks back on it. This is what caused the issue in the first place. im going to change them to a rounded bunk to match the hull. Tracker did good.

Haven't done it yet but I'm planning on installing a set of Gatorbak's on mine using the rounded edge model. They sent me a sample on a regular 2X4 and it appears to be a pretty good match for the rounded portions of the hull.
