I put a light in the locker and stuck my head up towards the bow and everything is completely sealed, no gaps anywhere like some have said they have. So I drilled a whole in about the middle of the locker and found a tiny bit of water on top of the foam, not much at all. I did not remove any foam at that time. There was about a 2 inch gap (space) between the floor of the locker and to top of the foam. I decided to drill one more at the back of the locker near the drain hole that goes to the back of the boat (under the gas tank). There was no gap at all between the floor of the locker and the foam and the foam was completely dry, not a drop of water. So I went back to the hole in the middle and started removing the foam and one I got towards the bottom there was a fair amount of water. I sucked about 2-3 gallons out. I went back and removed the foam at the back of the locker and found just a little water down at the bottom. So overall I didn't have a lot of water but there was definitely some trapped in there, just not sure where it came from. I'm glad I checked and will put a couple of plates over the holes and check it from time to time.
