So...……..as part of commissioning the new to me boat, after three weeks on the hard sorting seacocks and the swing keel, relaunch on Thursday bilges have always been dry as a bone (since February at least).
Get down to the boat early Saturday. Emptied cockpit locker and removed the small access panel for the fuel stop cock and noticed a ball valve (closed) seemed to be linked to the calorifier so I opened it.
Filled up the fresh water tank from what was left from previous owners.....took a while.
Went for a spin around the bay and came back and there was a lot of fresh water in the bilge.
Spent all day trying to find the leak. Have unscrewed everything, transom shower seems ok, water tank seems ok.
Any ideas?
