Default Can the frame fill with water?

Just wondering if it is possible for the frame to take in water (if you cross a deep creek or even sink it by accedent) and if so are there little drain holes to let it drain? I own a 03 400 & 04 650.
Thank you for any reply.

Oh yea it can go in if you have drilled into your frame but most of the mounts on a frame are welded but chances are your can still get water in the frame. You also have to stay in the water real long.

Thanks for the reply. I wonder if it would make sense to drill a little drain, plug it, but open it from time to time to let some water out if there was a chance it could have made it in there?

That's a good question Husky......I guess I wouldn't be worried about it so much when crossing water but more from condensation. I'm sure after enough exposure to warm and cold temps condensation alone would cause a buildup without any drain holes. I would think AC would have though of this, but I could be wrong. If you find anything out let me know....thanks
