Just noticed that our transom shower has a slow leak. The water won't completely shut off when the water pressure is on. Both cold and hot handles are closed tight but it's still leaking out of the shower head. This might be a common problem? We are new boat owners. Just wondering if anyone has had the same issue and has any tips to fix this problem. Thanks

Could be as simple as removing the caps off the water valve knobs and adjust the screw. If that doesn't work, take apart the valve and replace the O rings. If that doesn't work, replace the entire valve assembly from Catalina Direct, Replacement Boat Parts, etc.

There's usually an on/off valve on the shower head itself, that should stop the leak until you get the faucet fixed.
