Re: KEEPING STUFF DRY??
Fellowship-
That happened to me a few weeks ago in the other hatch just below the one on the forward deck. Opened up the hatch and it was 1/2 full of water. My emergency kit(same as yours in the pic) was soaked. Flares were all ruined. Really pissed me off cuz not I have to go and buy a new e-kit. My storage hatch (the one below the one in your pic) has a 1" drain plug in the bottom that drain's to the bilge. I pulled the plug so it wont happen again. May as well leave it out all the time if you think about it the only way to get water out of there is to vaccume it out or let it drain to the bilge. I dont know why my little side lip drains are not working. I'll take a look at the deck hatch you have pictured sometime today. I usually keep stuff in that hatch that I dont care if it gets wet.
