[QUOTE="Skiffing, post: 377962, member: 15889"] I wouldn't accept the boat. If the aluminum is not cleaned correctly and ANY corrosion is left behind it can cause welds to look like this. You can't really tell because they are painted over. Another reason is wrong wire size / speed / amperage. Any of these leads to weak welds. The first issue can also conceal ongoing corrosion.
