Default 07 brute force, water in air box

I have a 07 brute force. i would say that i dont ride in deep water , but it seems like everytime i ride in water ( no more that 1 to 2 feet ) i end up with water in my air box. Is anybody else have this problem. I cant figure out where it is coming in at.

the airbox has a opening in front of the air box and the water is splashing up in the opening

there is a drain tube up in the right hand corner of the airbox it is probably plugged up causing the water to stay in the box take a long screwdriver and just push it down thru easy!

i have seen where some one took a inner tube from a car tire cut it to wrap around in front of the airbox and zip tie it to the frame i think i saw it on superswampboys.com
