I have a 2014 Triton 21TRX, I guess that year model is being recalled, they will give me a brand new boat identical to what I have, they will mount my engine and all electronics back on the new boat, there is nothing wrong with mine but I guess the potential is there, something to do with delaminating, I am going to try and schedule mine for after October, usually in the woods most of Fall and Winter.

Wow really? Geez that is going to put them out of business I would think. How many boats are effected by this recall?
Hopefully yours will turn out nice with no problems. But dang that is one heck of a recall.
If it ain't yours don't mess with it! Need a friendly place to talk hunting? www.talkhunting.com

May keep them in business actually... Showing loyalty to their customer and assuring them they stand behind their product and will make things right no matter what the cost. Good move.

Do you think that boat/car manufacturers buy some kind of insurance policy against these type things?

Didn't fishing holdings Inc (owner of Triton, Stratos and Ranger brands) get bought out by Tracker? If so you ain't bankrupting Johnny Morris and Co.

http://tritonboats.com/21TrX_Replacement/faqs.htmlIn June of 2013, our manufacturing facility began production of a new Triton model; 21 TrX. As part of this launch process, a different hull lamination schedule was used ONLY in the 21 TrX Triton hulls. In late June of 2014, we identified the new hull lamination schedule used only on the 21 TrX hulls had potential for cracking to occur near the rod locker areas in the bow section of the hull on the boat . In late June of 2014, we made the necessary corrections by going back to Triton's proven hull lamination schedule that had historically been used on the Triton 21' bass boats. There are no issues or concerns with any other Triton models. Triton 21 TrX models built after late June 2014 have the correct hull lamination schedule and do not have any issues or concerns.

Hell I am stoked, going to get a brand new 2017 model, I am going to sell my 2014 250 Pro XS, it only has about 150 hours on it, I will end up with a brand spanking new rig for like 10 grand, I feel like I hit the lottery.
