Leaking Compartments 2019 Eyra (I need solutions..)

so recently went fishing and it was pouring down rain on both days last weekend, once I get home to not much of my surprise once again all of my compartments are wet. my rod locker has watered that seems to be coming in from the bow area, starboard rod locker seems to have water coming in from the Fwd drain (not coming from gasket) area but there’s no missing screw hole or anything that I can see that would allow water to seep in. Center compartments seem to have the nonskid material on the bottom always getting soaked to death with water. Rear compartments seem fine, hardly get water in there at all. my compartments were all of my tack is stored just seems to get wet all the time, and I seem to be having to go buy new tackle boxes because whenever a bait starts rusting from water intrusion there’s no use of trying to clean the box because that rust always comes back. waterproof box or not it’s still sweats and gets water inside of the boxesz I know Bass Cat advises this but has anyone tried drilling a hole through the bottom of the compartments to allow drainage? almost every single boat manufacturer has a drain hole on the bottom of every single compartment I really am not sure why we can’t just put a drain hole in the bottom of the compartments. The center ones really aren’t that huge of a deal because they are solid painted fiberglass and can be wiped up fairly easy, it’s the carpet boxes that hold the expensive rods and reels + the Sonar black boxes and fuse panels that seem to collect the most water and nothing short of a lot of vacuuming and fans and Time can get all that moisture out. I’m fully aware of how to countersink a hole and drill it so the fiberglass doesn’t crack, I really love my Bass Cat boats but it would be an absolute godsend if they started putting drains on their compartments.
