Hi - I have a 98 Waverunner GP1200W and I don't have a lift or a wedge thing to park it on while its in the water. If I leave it in the water does this cause it to take on water somehow? I have left it "moored" in the water at the lake near my house and the next day there is a lot of water inside and the bottom of the engine is getting wet.

I then unscrew the 2 drains in the rear and run it on plane for a little while and it drains out - Is this bad for the engine?

Is this ok way to drain it or do i need to pull it out of the water?

Is it normal to take on water like this? or does it maybe have a leak?

Thanks for any help.
