Had the same issue but didn't notice the scratch until it was in the water and saw it after they dropped. I instantly called and informed and said they would handle replacement but also noted "it could take some time" and "That its a length not safe process and not of welds to undo". I was offered free winterization and storage for 2 years which is around $1600 total. I have not decided either direction but it doesn't feel right as it was a lot of money and no my scratch... With that said, how much of a ding would that be on trying on resale? What have others done in this situation and has anyone had tubes replaced and where there issues after.
