Over thinking .....my 2000 is all wood and still solid at that point.
How is a battery tray collecting that much water?
The lids are not sealed completely back there .They are a two piece design.

Actually wasn't a lot, but when boat was tilted back it was enough to have 1.5" of water in back of tray (not covering whole tray). Coming off plane mostly and fishing in rain. 2-12' talons, gas and 2 live wells it takes some driving skills to keep the water out of there. Actually, the talon brackets is the biggest issue since they can trap some water and push a small wave when setting it down. I can do better, but don't try very hard. I've never had auto bilge come on and have never had enough water drain out of plug after drip to fill a water bottle. And I'd take a little water to keep the split back compartment. I so much rather the split than 1 large that you can't get in from the boat.
