More info please. Wave conditions, speed, how many on board, is the water splashing in or coming up through seams?

Look underneath the deck, there should be some grey plastic splash delfectors in front of all the crossmembers.

It is possible that those came off somehow and water is coming through the seams.

Re: Bennington wet deck

it is definetly coming from the seems. Are those deflectors standard equipment ?

As far as I know they go on every boat, they may have come off or been taken off by a previous owner and I believe they are only on the bakc 2/3 of the boat.

Any Bennington dealer should be able to help you out with them if they are missing.

One suggestion is to install aluminum underskinning to your boat, and cover up the cross braces.

Your boat will run smoother, quieter and give you a much better boating experience. It's something an individual can do themselves.
