Does anyone know the open acess points to the fuel tank/lower bilge area of the newer 170 Montauk? Sometimes, I have quite bit of water coming out when I remove the drain plug, even if the boat has only been in the water a short time, and in flat calm water. I know of the 2 deck plates, the 3 hatches along the transom, and the opening in the splash well for the engine cables. I highly doubt that the water is intruding through those areas. Are there other entry points for the water to get in the bilge?
