[C320-list] Return of the Freshwater leak...

[Paul Rickman]

Try the cold water hookup to the hot water tank. That is where mine leaked. Mostly
after the water was heated up. Mne has a four inch (+/-) piece of hose, make sure the
hose fits all the way on and clamped good. It may be that you need to put new hose
on there, I did.

Hi all,



The leak is back!  I went down to the boat today and found about a gallon
and a half of Fresh water swilling around in the area below the sink (I have
the drawers out) and spilling into the bilge . I can`t figure out where it
is coming from as it doesn't seem to be the water tanks or heater and I am
beginning to suspect rain ingress. We have had quite a bit this week. 

The forward bilge and water tank is dry, and I have marked the water tanks
level to see if it is from the internal plumbing somewhere. In the meantime
any ideas where that amount of external water could be getting in as I can`t
see anything obvious. Hatches are all tight. 



Regards
