I turned the water system switch on the other day and heard a hum from the bilge . I got down in the engine compartment and saw 6” of water in the bilge after what was about 5 minutes ! Water was squirting out of one of the blue water line hoses but I couldn’t see where it was coming from because it was shooting out from above the water tank but too hard to contort myself to find the end of the hose as it was way up heading towards either the dock hose bib in the starboard locker or the warer pressure regulator on the starboard hull just under the cockpit aft seat . It’s not coming from the swim platform shower , I checked and no leaks . I tried to remove the pressure regulator but it’s bonded to the hull , even though I unscrewed the four mounting screws . I’m not sure if this is the source of the leak or not . Any ideas anyone ?
