I would like to know if other folks who have the newer 240DA or 260DA have experienced the same problem I am having. (This is another one of those things that makes you shake your head and ask why this should happen in the first place. :smt017)
The rear cockpit seats on my 260DA have plenty of nice storage under them which we use for a whole variety of things. The problem is the seat bases are bolted to the floor itself and are not sealed at the factory (at least mine weren't). So if you hose out your cabin floor or get caught in a rainstorm (which happened to us yesterday) all the water from the cabin floor drains right under those mounting bases and soaks everything that is stored under the seats. :smt021 If Sea Ray could have put a bead of silicone around the bases when they bolted them on and there would have been no water leakage. But they didn't. So my next project is to do just that..................run a silicone bead around the edge of the bases.
If you have a newer 240DA or a 260DA, I would be interested to know if you have experienced the same problem.
