The starboard lazarette gets soaked in the rain, as there is no rain channel along the back like there is on the port lazarette.

Has anyone fixed this, or is the easy solution just to store things in a waterproof bag?

I just found this out this weekend after hosing down my cockpit only to find that my PFDs and other contents were quite wet. Hoping to hear if you come up with solution or someone else in the forum has a solution.

Have the same problem and figured it out the hard way as well. I use plastic tubs that are the close to the same height of the lazarette. They come very close to the seat when it is closed. I keep items in the tubs and it keeps them dry when it rains, etc. Blasting with a hose at the right angle can still get water inside the tub, but I know enough now to take them out when doing a heavy washdown.
