Could be cutting oil (or some other contamination) on the Aluminum when it was cut and put together. The piece may not have been cleaned off properly before they finished it ...... we had that issue on some stuff we fabricated (not boats) but rolled sheet (same as Brunswick uses for boats). The stuff gets cut in the CNC and then degreased -and you have to do that step right if you are finishing the boat.
Yeah, that's a pain, because it needs to be sanded off, get cleaned and re-finished.
