250/252 Port side storage (head) door alignment

[VitaminSea]

I have noticed from looking at a few late model (2024-2025) 250/252s that the port side storage door doesn’t appear to be aligned correctly; said another way the vertical gap is not consistent. Example below.

Has anyone experienced this and if so, is it the result of alignment or perhaps a bad mold?

Furthermore if you took delivery of a boat and noticed this, how was it remedied?

Not my boat, but a friend just got a '23 252 with this same issue that I noticed. He's fine with it for some reason, I didn't have a chance to look too closely into it, but it seemed like there's a hinge issue, or placement, which would seem to be a mold issue

I don't think he will be addressing it, but whenever I get a chance, I will be taking a closer look at it

Seems to me when Capt Trip and Steve at boat test reviewed this boat I saw the same thing.

Without being there it kinda seems like the foot on the latch needs to be adjusted up tighter to pull the door up snug
