Check the bedding around the emergency tiller port. Mine was badly cracked and clearly leaking. Since replacing and re-bedding the inspection port, I have ZERO water in my bilge. It's the driest I've ever seen it in 7 years of owning the boat.
You will destroy the old port while removing it. so be sore to buy a replacement first. West Marine carries them. I used 4200 sealant and it looks great.
