Default Troubleshooting water in cabin

I have a decent knowledge of the boat. I've had it 7 yrs. I have
eliminated everything internal. The only thing I can think that is
causing it is a crack. My question with that is that why is the water
only dampening the carpet and not accumulating? I guess it could be
high enough up rather than on the bottom.

I think the next step is probably (unfortunately) obvious- pulling boat
out. As I don't have a trailer and the closest dealer is 50 miles away,
it is a problem....


Try borrowing a trailer at a ramp for an hour. If it were me, I'd loan you
one in a heartbeat. I'd think most folks would.

Also, to help spot the leak, if it is there, you might put some food
coloring in the water inside the boat. That way you'll be able to spot it
when it comes out.
