I have a new-to-me '98 230 bowrider. While going over it cleaning everything I noticed the forward storage under the seats in the bow and the anchor cabinet do not appear to drain into the bilge or ski locker. They appear to just snug tight to the floor. Where does the water go? It must find it's way to the bilge, right? No one would design a boat that couldn't get wet or just let it seep under things into the places in the hull where it shouldn't be trapped.
Until I figure that out I'm a little hesitant to indiscriminately use the hose and heavy suds up front though.
Someone reassure me I can hose it down and then just pull the drain plug to let it dry!
