2016 fisherman 220 - fishboxes

Postby Francis52 » Mon May 17, 2021 6:04 pm

The fishboxes fill with water when it rains. Not sure how to correct this? I always have to pump the water out.
Help please!

Unless you can find a way to seal them ( like with some kind of gasket ) then there always going to do that, although now that I think about it how about adding a small hole with some kind of plug on it so when the boxes aren't in use you could take the plug out and let the water drain to the bilge?
