I wonder how its getting from the engine to the ski locker with the plug in?
There are so many plugs on these boats. If he has the back plug on the ski locker or the plug in the fuel area in. I would not think it would. If it's super hot like not heated from the sun. It's getting forward somehow.

where are you located? Maybe a veteran jetboater can spend a few minutes with you in the water

Ancor locker drain works fine never stays water over there
If u search this forum many people were having issues with the anchor locker not being sealed and allowed water between the inner and outer portion of the boats hull.

If it is engine cooling water getting that far forward it will be interested to see how. Does your boat still have flow out the pisses on the side while under power? U may need to drain the compartment, then stick your head down there white the engine running and see if u can determine how the water is getting in.

When was on the water I open the ski locker drain plug off and water just coming in and I always check pisses out when I running but doesn’t do slow speed that should be doing even slow speed ? Or just pisses out then running ?

Lots of confusing info on this:

btw water running in while motors are not working when i was hanging out at the sand bar..
It is hot and water wasn’t hot at all I was at halour sand bar and high tide was coming in and water was cool
Please confirm the following:
  • the water is coming in when the engines are, and are not running
  • the water is hot (hotter than the water you are boating in by a LOT)
  • You have confirmed your anchor locker drain is sealed (what we mean here is that if you look into the hole from the outside, all you see is inside the locker, and don't see ANY gaps between the hull). One quick way to eliminate this is to stick a cork in the drain from the outside.
  • Do all your pee holes produce water at speed? (I think on your model there are 2 or 4...not certain which)
  • Have you tried filling your bilge with the boat on the trailer to see if any through hull fittings are leaking water out (keep the plug in)
  • How much water do you have in your engine compartment (if none....I'm back to the anchor locker) - not sure why water is hot though--if its hot...then you must have water in engine or bilge too - take your phone and take photos inside the bilge via hatch under cleanouts
  • Have you seen the bilge pump run?

Once we have some clear answers on the above we can proceed. My bets are one or more combinations of:
  1. Anchor locker leak (exhaust manifolds are heating the water)
  2. Pee hole not connected
  3. exhaust leak
  4. Through hull fitting leak

My money is on a busted exhaust clamp or hose under the clean out hatch. With the boat on a trailer, drain any water and start it up with the hose on. Run for 5 minutes and see if any water comes out the drain. If it does, then track it down.

Please read this thread about the anchor locker, it will help you understand what we are talking about with regards to how it leaks.

Thank you. I’m gonna check now. But still doesn’t explain how so much water getting in.
It could....if your bow is weighed down...you have a hole under the water line. If it is weighed down (someone sitting in the bow) while driving at no wake speed...water is actually being forced into that hole (and into your inner hull). Causes the boat to take on a lot of water.

It is also possible you have more than one leak....

I’m just little worry if I open the plug and let the water run In eventually it would drain by it self or I should plug it all the time?

Here is how it’s look I don’t think water could run in to ski locker idk idk
That one doesn't look bad...a view from the outside would be helpful too, but it looks like the sleeve goes all the way into the inner locker, so likely not your issue.

So next up:
  1. Exhaust leaks
  2. Pee hole disconnected
  3. Through hull leaks
