I have read the related postings in regards to the Baja H2X front bilge but noticed that the postings were somewhat older. Has anyone previously had luck with correcting the problem. I just purchased a 2002 H2X and had noticed a smell and the carpet seems to stay wet. I wasnt for certain what the problem was because it has rained on the boat just about everyday since i bought it. I have also stood in the cabin with the boat on the trailer and rocked the boat and you can hear some serious water moving around in it. The boat doesn't seem to take on hardly any water but as all y'all, would really like to correct this problem. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide

I would check the hatch, horn, and nav lights. All 3 of mine were leaking. Plus the bilge pump was broken. Also the pop cleats can get water around the cups and get in.

SO I have this problem, and and tired of dealing with it. Tried to mount the factory float/bildge lower int he V but its still not going to be low enough. So now I am thinking of other options. My water is coming from the AC condensation.... Even checked into putting a siphon vlave ont he AC out put to suck the pan dry so it woul dnot go into the bildge, but that adds other problems. and I can figure out how to route the pan drain to the sump as there is not a strait shot, that will allow it to gravit feed.

SO any of you have a pic or 2 or some part numbers of the set up? if you use a pump with a hose to suck it out, and its hooked to the factory pumps out put, then the factory pump does not work anymore because its discharge hose is now being used by the new pump?

I think these work pretty good.

I have debated doing this as well. they make a 20 buck version that does the same thing. BUT IF its gets clogged, then your pump will back feed the pan from the pump.... so that seams like a bad idea.
