Default HELP! Water in bilge when running...

Hi Shawn,

So did the boat initially stay dry while docked *before* you plugged the
hole? Or did plugging the hole result in leaking a few buckets per hour
while running, but remaining completely dry while docked.

To test my observations I plugged the "hole" with sikaflex and it stopped
the leak completely over a period of 24 hours while in the marina
(completely dry) but underway I took in a few buckets of water in an hour.

yes Bob

it stayed dry after I gunked up the hole until I took her out again 24 hours
later and the flow "pumped" the water in. I have posted a complete
explanation in a former post.
