Marko,

One of my water heater fittings on the tank popped off while underway and the water pump emptied the tanks into the bilge.  Were your tanks empty while hauled out or did they have water in them?  If they had water check the level and see if they are empty now.  Just a thought from my experience that may relate.  Good luck!

After a couple of days of heavy rain I noticed that there was a lot of water under the floor at the companionway. The water level was high enough at the tranny area. The boat sat lower on the stern therefore the bilge was totally dry. I looked for stains but nothing. The aft area near the gas tank and steering was dry. I cannot find the source of entry. I plan to use vegetable die and pour the coloured water around the cockpit, doing one side and later the other side with a different colour of dye. I am totally stumped by the volume and no water stains.
