I have a 1992 Nautique. When I wash the boat I sometimes get water in the battery box. The drain is clogged and using a wire or wire snake to clear has still not fixe the clog. Any Suggestions?

The box drains into your bilge. You need to get up there where the box drains into the bilge and get the muck that can accumulate up there.

Did that but wire does not have a Chanel or direct path to the battery compartment.

I pulled my battery earlier this year. Put the hose nozzle on Jet and blew it clean. Seemed to work good.

That's why I turned the box into a cooler. Stupid place for a battery.

Where did you mount the battery?
