Looks like the anti-fouling paint didn't get applied high enough. The hatch obviously is too low also which clearly indicates he had no clue where this thing would sit in the water.

On top of the fact that the hatch itself is a deck hatch not rated for that kind of use. Underway the constant flow of water along the hull will compromise that seal pretty quickly I imagine.
It then makes you wonder if he spent the proper time with the electrical system to keep the whole thing from disappearing in the salt water.
Tip for the salvage guys - save the deck hardware, take a cutting torch to the rest. In short order we'll have pieces of metal from this thing in our cars we'll be buying...
