I have an aluminum boat (smoker craft) and believe there to be a really slow leak somewhere. When out fishing for ~8 hours I take on a gallon or two of water (at least)... I can run the bilge pump at the end of the trip for ~20-30 sec with consistent flow. I have had this boat on the water for a week straight and its not big enough to notice beyond having to run the bilge pump at the start and end of every trip.

I was curious if there is a way to locate the leak easily. I know its small but I am super fussy about things like this.

Also where could the leak possibly be? A rivet? A screw from transducer mounts (nothing new installed in last 2 years)?

Thanks in advance
