    Water pooling in floor of 210 during rain

    When we get rain out on the lake, I notice I’m getting a decent amount of water pooling in the floor of my 210. Has anyone dealt with this issue? Possibly installed a drain to the bilge?
    thanks in advance....

    Isn't there a floor drain already installed? Center or on the corners of the floor? My 203 has one dead center.

    my 2007 210 only has the small open ports on each side of the floor going under the seats. No obvious drain grates.
    I do my best to keep all the little debris from blocking these.

    Blow a little air in the drains. Either grated in center or in far corners. May have a kinked drain hose?

    Thanks guys, I will check the corners for a drain hole (didn't know they were there). I can confirm that I do not have a center floor drain currently.

    On a positive note - it was blowin' 30 with 2'-3'ers on the main lake for tournament Sunday & the 210 just ate em up. Loving this boat so far....

    If you notice on the 210, the front of the seat/tank cover doesn't go all the way to the floor, so theoretically, the whold width of the cockpit is the drain. That being said, it doesn't work real well. Putting a drain plate in there might no be a bad idea, but I'd pull the tank cover and see if there's anything under there you don't want to cut into.
