[C320-list] Persistent cabin leak

[ptormey at 4square.net]

Battling that same kind of leak myself on #1037. BUT a close look at the jib sheet track and you'll see that it's actually raised a bit, so water doesn't pool. I'm starting to think  it the handholds on the cabin top.

I've tried isolating the likely culprits with butyl tape using the "big gob and garden hose" technique but so far no luck.   

Let me know when you find it 😉

Despite rebedding chain plates and caulking portlight g-gaskets we still have leaks through the port-side saloon lights above the galley and nav station -- ? most likely culprit the lifeline stanchion or the Jib sheet car track - any suggestions appreciated.
