I noticed I had water in the bilge the other day, enough to make the bilge pump come on a few times in the couple hours I was on the boat. So yesterday I'm trying to figure out where it is coming from. There was a very small crack on the flat area between the motors and water was seeping up thru it, couldn't believe what I was seeing. Thinking that the leak, where ever it is coming from is not going to fix itself, it was boat ride time up to Marine Max Gunpowder where I store for the winter. Chris, the travel lift guy was there and we promptly pulled the boat and blocked it up. There was still water in the bilge because we did not pull the plug, in about 15 minutes the bottom was dry, except for one area. The thru hull fitting for the generator seacock had water leaking from around it, we proved it by plugging the intake and water was still coming out from around the thru hull fitting. I then pulled the plug. Hopefully the thru hull fitting just needs to be resealed or replaced, they can't get to it until next week.

Anybody else go thru something like this........
