The acceleration test is too hard to eyeball, it might mean something if you held a straight edge across the inside during the test, to see if there was any deflection. Tilt the motors out, and each of you stand on a lower unit. That will test the construction, and your confidence.
How long have you owned the boat, and were the cracks there when you bought it. Regardless of how deep, or how superficial, the cracks are, the proper repair would be to grind them out, glass, and gel coat. Grady suggesting "flexible plastic pieces they had made specifically for that section", just makes me think less of their QC than I already do.
Maybe other Bimini 306 owners can paste similar pics, if it is that common. A lot of boats have spider cracks, but this is not that.
What is that black area above the Phillips head screw in the fourth pic?
