I just picked up me new Spark this morning after a 5 week wait.. Won't be out on the water until the weekend.. I've seen two posts of broken hulls, the first was in NZ, the thing looked like high impact at hight speed but no clear info given on how the damage was done.. Like anything they will break in that situation.. The second, was damaged while loading the ski onto a trailer in low water, looked the the bunk had gone straight through.. Both of these examples the user could of avoided, and there would have been damage with any other hull..
