40 NS Cutter - leak

Post by ws1047 »

Have discovered water seeping up between two floorboards immediately in front of my master suite head doorway. In trying to locate source, I notice what appears to be sealant applied around circumference of the starboard bow hawse hole, on outside of hull. Noticed seepage during recent passage in seas rough enough to cause bow to drive into waves above level of hawse hole. Suspect water seeped in and traveled allong path of least resistance and appeared in our stateroom floor. Anyone else had a similar experience, or have any thoughts? Comments would be appreciated.

Have a look in the anchor rode and chain locker next to the windlass - if it's the same as mine, it is open to the master stateroom....
Good luck!
