I kept getting water under the sink checked all the usual culprits,  Water Heater, Water heater relief valve, Sink drains, Water Supply piping etc,  Gave up last year.
 
While cleaning the bilge I pored some fresh water in near the float switch after it ran I could hear some hissing.  As it turned out the bilge pump hose had chafed as it passed into the compartment below the sink.  After the pump ran the remainder of the water in the hose between the stern and the sink would slowly drain in under the sink. Because the hole was very small and it took a long time to collect I never made the connection.
 
I see the mystery water under the sink thread every now and then and have always read along hoping to find the answer.  If anyone else is having this problem I hope this helps.
