2002 utopia

Hi all- I’m a female boat owner in Tega Cay, SC and have had “She-Doo”, my 2002 Utopia 185 Sport for a year now. It runs pretty soundly but I have a question about the intake grate. Lake Wylie can have a lot of debris in it at times and twice now something has gotten caught in the intake...

I recently bought a 2002 Utopia 205. I have never owned a jet boat before and this one runs great but has cracking in the gel coat everywhere. Anyone with the same issue? Is it a problem? I have them from bow to stern.
