[C320-list] Water

[Marko Jamnik]

Thank you Scott

I am more confident now that it was the source of the leak. I will seal it from the top and do the fix once things warm up. I will keep you posted.

During heavy rain, water would drip in from that rim.  Never leaked from the drain hose fitting.  Tried to remove the whole "bowl"  but ran out of time and just taped and sealed the flange.  It did not want to come out easily.

Last year replace my emergency tiller plate, so I’ve ruled that out. I have narrowed down one possible source and that’s the propane locker. It drains to the port aft and noticed the fitting below the locker had moisture around it and there was watering hidden areas just below the locker.
