The comptip on my 17 developed some hairline cracks like that a few years ago. Has not been a problem, they are only in the outer surface. If you’re really concerned, rig the boat, flip it on its side, and crank on the mainsheet to see if anything opens up. But I doubt you have an issue.

Thanks for that. It's reassuring. As you said, the cracks don't seem deep and appear to be , pretty much, superficial.
