Default Water Leaks

FYI

After the torrential rains over this past weekend I happened to pull my tire kit from the trunk and found the carpet underneath was wet. I then pulled the trunk liner out and found standing water in the well!
After researching the main S2KI website I learned about the "sink & drains" that drain the top and a vent near the rear bumper. My drains were nearly clogged (good reason to keep the boot cover on). After clearing the drains and sealing the perimeter of the vent with plumbers putty I still had a leak, turned out to be a small hole at the right rear of my top.

Do yourself a favor and check your well! Mine had already started to rust.

I tried to post the links here but the main site was offline.

Still hoping to meet-up with the group

Pete

I had the same problem last year. I always keep an eye out for water and an ear out for it too. I could hear it slosh around.
