Everyone,
Thanks everyone I figured it out. For those who may have a problem with this. I lifted the front of the boat as high as I could with a floor jack. I hooked a piece of stiff 3/8" plastic tubing to a garden hose and stuck it in the utility tunnel at the splash well and with the water on pushed it all the way out the other end under the console. The tunnel was full of leaves and nasty stuff. Under the console if it backs up water will flow over into the compartment that holds the gas tank and this drains to the storage compartment at the back of the boat where the sump is that has a bilge pump and drain plug. There is a 3/4" PVC pipe between the tank compartment and the storage compartment with the sump. This was plugged and that was the majority of my problem.
Thanks again,
Carter
