I think I messed my boat up on Thursday. I hit a huge wake while at full speed and we hit pretty hard. Didn't think much about it until I was packing up to leave the lake and noticed that the interior panel on port side was pulled away from the gunnel. I finaly had a chance to look at it today and I can not bend it back in place. After further inspection I found a big hump in my floor in front of where you step up to the front casting deck. I'm guessing I must have tweeked the hull of the boat out of shape. I can't notice anything bent from looking at the boat from the outside. I have a Tracker Targa 17.

Anyone have any ideas about this, will it be a problem?

Possible... If so I would contact your insurance carrier immediately. Damage on the water should be covered. No different than hitting a log, etc. Let them buy you a new hull or have it repaired by a factory authorized repair shop. That's why you have boat insurance.
