My '89 H23 has as a bilge that's as dry as a bilge can be when it's on the water. I keep it moored from May til November. Never a drop! When it sits on the trailer & covered, I find a couple inches of water under the floor boards. Never more than an inch or two. Anyone else have this problem?

Probably condensation,my 23.5 did that at first,took out all cushions,bedding and opened boat up with a screen hatch board,still gets damp but no water in builge.Trying boxcat of litter,see if that helps.

The 23 was notorius for water to be trapped in the rib work of the hull where you cannot get to it. I would not sweat it if you are not seeing any water in the bilge when sitting in the water.

I have a 22 and it is just the opposite.When it is on the trailer I think water is traped where I don't see it but as soon as I put it in the water I get a few inches in the bilge. I can clean it out and it is dry till I launch the next year.It must be the angle it sits on my trailer.(I hope).
