How to remove this electrical box GTX DI

[Mikefl]

I’m chasing a hull leak (leaks when floating)

I’m going to remove as much from the back of the hull as possible to find the leak (s)

This dry box houses the coils, it has two threaded studs planted in the hull, I removed the nuts, but the box feels like it may be fastened somewhere else… I can’t feel or see any other fasteners.
Before I screw something up, can I just yank and pull to remove this?

Do you still have the Opas “steering flaps” set up on your ski? As these skis age ,the rubber boots that keep the water out fail.
You can check them by tilting the ski rear down to the ground on the trailer and installing the drain plugs. Then use the garden hose to fill up the inside of the hull some to see if it leaks out of the flaps and inside the jet pump area where the steering linkage connects.

Thanks I’ll check those rubber boots more thoroughly
