its fine my turtles when they bask they lie on top of each other to be away from the water and they seemed to worked out a rotation =O just make sure the basking area isnt like COMPLETELY soaked and it would help to reduce the water
best of luck

Providing a totally dry basking area would be best for your turtle. Try to arrange it's enclosure to create one.
In the meantime, this isn't a horrible situation. It could be improved.

It should be dry--can't you lower the water slightly?
