I have a boat leak. 1992 Tuffy Rampage. I had an issue last year, so in the spring I resiliconed all outer screws. One transducer screw was definitely part of the problem, but not entirely. I filled the boat partially with water inside to see if it would leak out. Nothing leaked out on the below waterline screws or the plug. Checked the live well hoses for rot or water drip and they appeared fine while it was in the water. It's not the bow eye, as its above water line and it takes on water while sitting at the dock. Probably a gallon or two overnight. Manageable, but it would be nice to find it. The boat is old, all original and in good shape. I crawled underneath and nothing alarming. I was going to fill it up inside in driveway with a little more water and check again. Does anybody have any other tricks I could try to locate the leak?
