The Outback comes with a small scupper plug that goes in that drain hole beneath the seat. With the plug installed you'll stay dry. If you didn't get one with the boat call your dealer. In the mean time you could plug the small hole with whatever fits. Looks to be about the same diameter as a hot dog. :P

If playing in waves, my whole body gets wet. On the smoother rivers, my butt never gets wet. Didn't even realize there was a hole under the seat until seeing your post. Had to go out with a flashlight to see and sure enough, there is a hole. Sitting on a closed cell foam pad is probably keeping my butt dry.
