Hello all

When I pull out of the lake, I've noticed water dripping from a couple of the small pin holes located at the top of the lower unit where the LU bolts (6 bolts) into the mid-leg. The pin holes are located rite next to the bolt heads on the underside.

Is this ok?

Thanks in advance.

Those are drain holes, to ensure all the water drains out.

No one drilled holes in it while you weren't looking.

Like Roscoe says normal!
Water works it way in to all the little nooks and crannies.
If not drained it could freeze and destroy the lower.
