[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 35538, member: 816"] lots of boats sit pretty level in the water. some even sit a little lower in the front than the back when not in motion. so, you won't necessarily see all of the water in the bilge area. its likely distributed pretty evenly in the hull. which means there is no way to tell where its coming from under those circumstances. even filling it with water won't always work because the water might exit where the leak is and travel the ridges/ribs before exiting on the ground. so, the only sure fire way is to pull all of the flooring, sprinkle a bunch of flour all over the floor and then float that thing. the flour will get wet right where the water enters. sounds like fun!
