I have a '95 300 Sundancer that has a leak in the aft cabin during heavy rains. It appears that water is actually seaping in on the back port corner of the cabin through the fiberglas during hard rains. Additionally, I have drips coming through the 2 screws holding the ceiling fabric up in the aft cabin at same time. I'm wondering if all of the water is coming in up there and perhaps traveling over and coming through the fiberglas flooring? Help!
 
check and make sure all connections to your water heater are closed and no water is leaking in through that hatch because it will drain down into the aft cabin
 
Might be something to check:

The aft cabin berth cushions were soaked on the starboard side, as was the forward berth mattress. In the case of the former, the leak was coming from the radar arch mount bolts which were not adequately caulked. It will be necessary to remove the arch to repair the leak.
