They were factory from the mid/late 70's on. I've seen the same exact ones with a 19" tv/vcr combo on many different Hatteras...... It is a tv...
THIS, it's contaminents on the gelcoat OR the air supply for the spray gun. Generally they are caused by oil or silicone and called fish eyes......
As far as I know Princess/VSC has always used aluminum tanks and usually outsides of Engine room.
Both are long term, well known builders. I've seen it on several new yachts from Europe.....air temp/water temp are much colder than South...
