I got mine today also. Feel the same as Jimmy. Still think it is a good idea but lacking on the R&D side. I am thinking onehundred80 is correct about the material. It reminds me of concrete poured in a plastic lined form. It will follow and recreate every imperfection. These seem to do this up against the edges of the strakes and the area between the gills. Its a great idea that needs to be perfected.

I am thinking of giving mine to Vakryderguy for Christmas. LOL
