Hey guys, the solar panel on my 40.5 Legend is always filling up with water. I have the old one piece cover that goes from the travler to forward of the big skylight. There does not appear to be any way for the water to drain out that I can see. I know that the newer 40.5 have two piece covers so you can get to the blocks routing the running rigging.

My question:
do the new models have a drain for the solar panel recess? If so where is it located?

Bill,

I looked through my pictures and found two that may help. I have the newer two-piece design and I think the dark round dot to which the arrows point is a drain from the panel area to the organizer area. I am not sure if this is a drain and the picture is not as clear as I would like.

This spot that looks like a drain hole is at the forward port corner of the panel. Perhaps your drain hole is clogged with stuff?
