What do the inside of your boat setups look like? And also with a cowling how are you keeping water out? Are you using a second top? Thanks.
 
Many of the guys in R/C Unlimiteds do run with a thin second top that is mounted flush with the deck and taped down. Some of the guys running boats with exposed piston engines will have the engine mounted on a panel and that is installed in the engine well using varying ways of sealing it to keep the water out.
 
Below is what my purpose designed $ Bill looks like. There are two tape down hatches with the superstructure clipped on. Also below is the system I use when I converted a Mutt sport 40 to electric. I think it's important to keep all the electrical components dry.
