Doesn't effect anything at all and is not noticeable.- When tire blew, it bent the edge of the wheel well. It is visibly bent a bit on the edge. Doesn't affect the performance at all. Can easily be reshaped and sprayed with semi gloss black paint and not be noticeable.- Surge brakes are inop at the moment due to the line coming disconnected under the trailer and the fluid leaking. Honestly, I never cared for the surge brakes even though I asked and paid for them. They seemed to negatively affect the reverse/backing up of the trailer. A basic repair would have them back working.- Last summer, when trailering the boat, the bow roller mount busted off the frame due to rust internally. I took it to a guy who knows what he is doing, and he put a monster weld on it and it is fixed better than it was originally.- I accidentally rubbed a small scuff in the side of the vinyl seat that you cannot see unless you are looking closely. I will pass along a vinyl patch kit that I bought but have not completed the patch yet.- Normal wear- Some scuffs and scratches as would be expected- Everything works great- Boat looks beautiful
