Hi All,
I have a new to me 2004 185 Sport with the Fish and Ski package.
I am trying to figure out the baitwell situation. I was under the impression that to drain the well, I am to remove the overflow drain tube... But that seems to be allowing water in.
Is the drain below the water line, allowing it to fill to the waterline? I recall seeing some sort of plug under the boat when it was being painted.... If that's the case, is there any concern leaving it in the water? I haven't yet replaced the baitwell battery which controls the pump, but I believe that's to pump water in, not out?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!
