[QUOTE="Fester, post: 375395, member: 6300"] Filling the boat with some water is actually not a bad idea..disconnect battery put the plug in and fill. If it’s a hose the water should seep into the areas where there may be a crack or loose fitting. Example: if intake for live well has a crack in the tube water/loose fitting you should start to seeping into the line and drip towards outside of the boat coming out of intake hole. This would at least eliminate tubes and fittings prior to the pumps. For after the pumps put in the water and run them. If you are taking on water like that you should be able to see some drips between the pumps into the live well fittings. Filling should also show if the rivets are leaking. Make sure everything is dry prior to filling. [/QUOTE]
