My X factor is older and i put weather seal around the gator hatch (one strip on the yak and one on the hatch). I dont get any water in there anymore. granted i only launch through small waves and one or two might break over the bow, but even then its bone dry, i have to pour water in to get the transducer wet ( i have a ghetto "wet mount" with a pocket under the silicone for water to fill. works just as well).
