this was my most favorite boat i have ever had, I have had it a few years no issues or concerns until last night, had a bunch of friends in the boat just cruising along around 40 mph all of a sudden it made a sharp right had turn and was driving really weird, so i turned around and headed back to the boat landing. Im very lucky it didn't do it the night before when I was speed testing it, fastest i saw was 78.5 mph, at that speed i would have been swimming, im glad it didnt just sink to the bottom. This boat was mint. Im super bummed about it

Glad to see you did not get hurt at speed that could have been real bad. There are a few members here that have been hurt from the same delamination.

That makes the fourth Concord I've seen do that.

What year is it? They have a "lifetime hull warranty" on them after like '92ish. Chop gun built though, it's unfortunate.

THIS! It's only going to happen again if you don't replace the core.

The boat ia a 1990 i guess the hull warrenty only applies to the original owner.I'm looking into getting it fixed, fix the hole, then all new core and floor and what ever else it needs. Sucks the core is bad, but oh well not much you can do now.

I was selling boats in that era and had a friend at a dealer that sold Concords. He bought one new, just like yours and it delaminated, in the same place, at a couple yrs old.
I loved the boats and knew dealers that swore by them but I've seen too many do what yours did to be a coincidence.
