I have a 2001 Zodiac MK2 Futura, which has been for the most part a very fun boat. The problem is that the glue that adheres the transon to the hull tubes has dried out and released several times, even after repair at an authorized Zodiac facility. As is this was not enough of a problem, the bottom of the boat also started to become unglued. (this was in about 2004)
After 6 months of trying to convince Zodiac that there was a serious problem, they finally replaced the boat, excluding floor boards, seats and console. I have had this boat for about 2 years and the problem is starting again.
After extensive research, i have learned that the problem is the PVC hulls. The glue just does not hold for long periods (not that 2 years is a long period). Hypalon on the other hand is a great material that will withstand the test of time.
Is there anyone else having the same issues?
