RE: return
uhm no, then when you ask again .... uhm no.
You should try to sell it here or E bay and get what you can for it. Maybe see if there are any boaters in your area and ask where they go.
Unless there is something wrong, as in a manufacturers defect then most places will not accept an open item.
it is opened right, if it is not open then you may be able to work with your LHS for a store credit.
