engine compartment condensation problem ?

My 1998 26 sonic stays dry all the time but my friends 1999 sonic engine compartment seems like even when the boat is in or out of the water the engine has dew all over it . the boat has a cover over it . the boat after running it will evaporate it but just sitting there develops this dew problem ?

Re: engine compartment condensation problem ?

Tony,, the Baja always had condensation all over the motor too,, but never on the upholstery.. I always wondered why some boats develop condensation and some dont..
