The hot water line came off the back end of the shower and sprayed water under the fuel tank on my 29 ft Ranger Tug. The water is not draining out from under it. Is there a clogged drain that I could clean out or is this fully enclosed and has no drain?

It should drain. The drain is probably plugged. You may be able to access it from the engine compartments. Wire coat hanger? or stiff wire.
 
There is a drain located under the engine in the lower bilge. You will need a coat hanger or a stiff wire to push thru for the bilge side this will clear the clogged drain and allow the water to drain. You need to get it to your dealer and have them take are of this.
 
Thanks for the reply's. I did clean out the drain line but the water on the bow side of the tank went down very slowly then seemed to stop. Vacuumed the rest of the water out but about an inch deep still appears and has been for the last 12 hrs. Wondering where this water is coming from? Water pressure has been on and pump has not been cycling. Another thing that I noticed was the tank has been expanding and contracting due to the vent hose having a sag in it. Could this expansion and contraction cause the tank to leak?
