Just received my new triton about three weeks ago. First of all I really enjoy the Bennington and am pretty happy with the product. However, I went thru my first rain storm with the boat uncovered. I have encountered severe drain problems. All my front storage areas acquired several inches of water with no where to drain. I noticed the drain holes in the channels under the seat tops drain directly into the storage areas that do not have drains. Some holes were just partially drilled, some not at all. The console indentations below the gauges also filled with a couple inches of water. (worried about gauges and switches). I get you should put dry containers under seats for items that should not get wet, however life jackets and other item will mildew if not pulled out to dry every time it rains or kids with wet swim trunk sits on the seat. These drain channels should have drain tubes directing water away from storage areas. A simple fix that would not be very costly but would solve a lot of problems. A little disappointed this issue was overlooked at the factory. I try to compare the Bennington to the Cobalt runabouts I have owned for years....hmmmm
