Rain seepage

[Paul Scribner]

Whenever it rains there is a small seepage from the bottom of the teak panel at the base of my starboard berth. Investigation of the holly ceiling above, storage lockers behind and below reveals nothing because there is a liner. Any ideas how I can trace this town and stem?

One method is to draw a line with a water-based non-permanent magic marker. Where the water runs down the side of the cabin will create a streak. From this streak you can localize the point of entry (usually).

Paul, I've been chasing leaks in my CD30 for a number of years now and I think I've finally got them all. Stop by "Cottontail" on the other side of the chanel from you and we can discuss.
