I have an 1978 O'Day 23. I constantly have water in my bilge and I cannot figure out where it is coming from. Last week I got all of the water out of the bilge -- I sponged out the last drops. I made sure that my one thru-hull is closed up (its for the forward sink drain). I came back to the boat 1 week later and the bilge was about 1/4 full of water again. It had rained a little bit that week; but I can't locate any leaks in the deck or chain plates. Maybe the water is getting in through the lazarettes? Could the water be coming in through the keel joint? The bilge never over flows with water; but it is usually filled nearly to the top. Any ideas on what the problem might be and ways to isolate where the water is coming from?Thanks,Paul
