No way in hell are they going to "give" you a new top for That. Dissimilar metals, galvanic corrosion. Typical of stainless screw put thru aluminum.
They will argue maintenance, salt-water corrosion issue and they would be partly correct.

Kinda hard to argue maintenance, salt-water corrosion
when they did the install of Dissimilar metals, galvanic corrosion. Typical of stainless screw put thru aluminum. with out any form of sealant

the boats only been on the water water 30 days total since last June

But if i dont ask for one the answer is no by default if it was 2 or 3 years old i could agree with poor maintenance but i see this as a manufactures defect.. I'll update when I get their response
