Re: Bilge draining

I talked to my boat mechanic and he thinks it is in fact the gas tank and it has slid forward slightly and now blocks the hole. I’ll just sponge out the locker when needed.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.

Re: Bilge draining

Thanks to link with handy tool but there’s not enough room for anything between the rigid obstruction and the ski locker. I’d love to talk to someone who knows exactly how the ‘99 206 is constructed. I’m starting to wonder if it was designed to drain in between the small gap between the gas tank ...

Re: Bilge draining

Hi, the the drain hole is just large enough that I can poke my finger in and feel the rigid obstruction about an inch in. There’s no place to clear with a coat hanger as the space between the ski compartment and the obstruction is very tight. Thanks for the help, it’s bewildering.

Re: Bilge draining

I’m having the same drain issue with a ‘99 206. The gas tank or something else very hard is pressed up against the hole. A coat hanger doesn’t fit anywhere. Is it possible for the gas tank to shift forward and cause this?
Thanks for any insight.
