Mine does the same.  There is actually a little ridge on mine so that area never really dries.  But I also haven't had it fill up to much and certainly to overflow.  I just made sure the water had a nice clean path to run to the bilge once the boat got up on an angle

Lucky Jack - .......The Surprise is not old; no one would call her old. She has a bluff bow, lovely lines. She's a fine seaboat: weatherly, stiff and fast, very fast, if she's well handled. No, she's not old; she's in her prime.
