    yes, you can still use it. Just make sure to seal any bare fiberglass. If it's only in the gel don't worry about it.

    It's your first boat. I'd wait until you have more experience.

    Don't feel bad Dude....

    Yesterday I snapped/broke a TALON fold down bracket because for some reason "one" of my talons did not retract when I hit the foot switch. Both of them went down ok though ... Started the motor and no alarm went off either (2 malfunctions) ... Hit the gas and before I knew what was wrong, SNAP!!!! Shit happens....

    Good thing is, it appears to be in only one color. that may save some on the repair bill.

    How did you get that scratch (on the back of the boat) while loading???

    I have found my trailer needs to be pretty shallow to load my Z19 or it will float over the fenders and put some scratches on the bottom. I found out the hard way. On my previous boats the trailers could be set pretty deep for loading but not the Nitro. I have a single axle so that could be a factor.
