Ummm.............. I must respectively differ..
My company also does some marine surveying, ( inspecting pleasure boats in insuring and pre-buy situations). Ans , yes, I have seen many examples of this "delamination" of composiets...  ....many cause factors, osmosis being the most common, poor quality control/contamination during layup are others....

These pockets of air bubles(?) are caused by heat/cold to the composite structures over time. My father, who was the Chief of Non-Metallic Materials at deHavilland Canada said that this is bunk. Once the composite is made and given the initial inspection, there is no way in hell they could delaminate like that.
