I have a 2014 MX1825, for the bow compartments I bought some automotive weatherstripping and put it on the lip where all the lids seal to (just like it is on the baitwell from the factory). Its not 100% but way way better than it was before.
Has anyone done a top on a MX1825. If so could you post some pictures I am looking at possibly having one done.
I think my 2014 also has drain holes in the corners of each of those compartments, but if you dont store the boat with it tilted up they will not fully drain. For me the bow storage is awful. I had to drill holes in my rod locker so that it would drain and I just put marine weatherstrip around each of the bow compartments to see if that helps. My only complaint about the boat is the lack of dry storage.
Anyone have pictures they could post of a Top/Enclosure on a MX1825? I am thinking of having one done for mine. Thanks.
No Mike, it was from a combination of a few over the bow and a steady heavy rain. The other compartments are soaked thru but they did drain. Gotta try to figure something out because emptying and opening every compartment whenever its wet is getting old.
I have to empty my boat after every trip to dry it out. It is pain I would love to figure out a solution. The rod locker will actually fill with water after a few over the bow or heavy rains. Anyone know if I drill a couple holes in the black plasitc if that will fix my problem and allow it to drain to the back?

I have a 2014 and it is my only complaint about the boat. I have to open every compartment after every trip if I take on any water or it rains. Is the ventilation system adaptable on the 2014 and older models??
Im running Bird Core units.
Mike, after seeing you on Saturday I checked and they do have all the different mounts up on the website. Here is the link.
Be sure to look into the variety of new Electronics mounts that Traxstech now offer. SBC did mine last year.

Keep in mind the Traxstech system isnt just versatile for fishing. You can insert step pads into the tracks as well and you can also mount cleats to the bases so you can adjust where your bumpers hang or your tie ons would go.
I agree on the winch step/ladder I didnt get one on mine when I bought it new, but have one on order from Cal to pick up. I launch alone alot and it gets old (as am I) climbing in and out.
SBC rigged my MX1825 this past spring for me and I am very pleased with my set up. I highly recommend a Traxstech track system, if you multi species fish it makes converting quick and easy. I also added a washdown pump/kit. Its rigged with a Terrova w I pilot link and 999 birds. They wired the back so when I troll I can also run my bow unit at the back deck as pictured. Also added a Trollmaster II for the kicker.

Yep, that’s what I was trying to describe. BTW, how’d you mount your tracks you have your downrigger mounted to? Bolt or screw?
Skeeter Boat Center (Ramsey Mn.)mounted the tracks for me, you can inquire with them and I am sure they could help you out.

1825 w/150 4 stroke w/ 9.9 kicker, 18P Reliance I get 49.6 mph (on GPS) @ 6000 rpms with one person and full load of fuel. With 2 people loaded with fuel and gear I believe I was running high 47s. I think my engine is mounted 3rd hole down. Hole shot is ok but I do plan to add a stabilizer plate to help a bit more.
Ryan works on my Pro Staff and he was the main reason I recently purchased a MX1825 from Skeeter Boat Center. When I started boat shopping, he was very knowledgeable about the boat and really showed me alot of the nice features and strong points too it. It helped make my decision an easy one. He also knows a thing or two about catching Muskies.
