RXP Drainage Problems

Hello
I have a 2006 RXP that has a few inches of water in the bilge. When I try to figure out how it drains, I see some clear tubing looped in the engine compartment that attaches to the external drain plugs, but it loops back around to the top of the jet. How does water exit the bilge? I'm concerned that perhaps a previous owner or the shop plumbed it wrong.
Thanks
 
There are the 2 suction boxes on the bottom of the hull. Make sure they aren't plugged up.

If you look into the back of your jet pump... you will see 2 small tubes hagging down from the top, and facing the rear. Those create a vacuum on the hoses going to the boxes. That will suck the water out of the hull while you are riding. If one of those tubes are missing... it will actually pump water into the hull.

The small amount of water you are seeing is probably from your Carbon Seal. It's normal for it to leak a little, and that's how it says cool. That's also why Seadoo's aren't rated to be left in the water overnight. (they may sink)
