Wheelman:

I know a few  have had water come in thru open latches or when the boat I’d left parked in a bow down position some water could get into rod lockers but that’s and easy fix,just don’t park boat bow down and…

Dwayne:

I am definitely interested to see what the cause of this is.

 

Something is definitely not right

Heavy rain or stuff a wave and I have 2-6″ of water sloshing around and have to remove everything and dry it out.  Nothing like having tackle boxes full of water rusting hooks. I think this guys suggestions are spot on.

Hoping it comes in with the dealers order end of September but I don’t think there has been word on it yet. The wait is very painful.
