I have a lot of water ponding in the ski locker. The water is draining slowly.

When I took the boat off the trailer, I noticed that the water started draining.

Do you know where the ski locker drains to? I checked the hole with my finger, it was clear.

I noticed yesterday our 210 Wake was doing the same thing. A little bit of water was pooled in there but as soon as we pulled the boat out of the water and opened the drain plug it all came out.

Maybe it was the incline?

My plug was out and it was filling up in the rain. I thought it might be some debris stuck in the drain hole.

which boat do you have? I have the 180 challenger and the ski locker drains right into the bilge. so when you have the nose down the water goes into the locker. If the nose is up it drains into the engine bay/ bilge.

210 sp. I need to find the bilge.

The ocean was really rough yesterday, water was coming over the bow. The ski locker still has water in it, 12 hours after trailering it home. I checked the hole and I couldn't find any blockage. Where does the ski locker drain go?

I also had 6 inches of water in the front passenger storage, when I got home. I check the hole and it was not blocked or clogged.

[Kevin Leclair]

It should drain to the bilge area.

I tried looking back there and I finally found the pump. There is no water in that area, but tons in the ski locker. I couldn't find the drain plug from the inside of the boat, is it under the engine compartment?

I think I might need to look at doing bilge in the ski locker or maybe something manual. The water coming in there is nasty wetsuit water (you know what goes on in the wetsuit).

[Kevin Leclair]

Might be time to take to the dealer, let them figure out why it is not draining while the boat is still under warranty.

[FJHIII]

Ok

[Kevin Leclair]

Keep us posted with what they find. Thanks.

They advised me to "blast some water throught the ski locker drain" and they think the poor ski locker drainage is a common sea doo problem.

[Kevin Leclair]

Sounds about right, maybe this is something SeaDoo can better address in future models.

I did the flush and used a shop vac to get a bunch of debris out of the area by the drain plug. All clean now. I will see how it goes next time.

When im done using my boat now i jack the bow of the boat all the way up till the trailer almost touches the ground and leave it there for a few min. there is always water in there that comes out. Then i take the bow all the way down and a little water will always flow into the ski locker. I just wipe that out and im done.

If you are at a boat ramp where no people are waiting for you, you can pull the plugs when you are still on the ramp and let it drain there.
