We have a 1980 C25. There's a leak somewhere in the bow that runs into the storage locker under the v-berth. Today I was trying to find the source of the leak by having my wife spray water over the bow from a hose while I watched from below. Coincidentally, it started raining pretty hard, and I could see water just streaming in right at the forepeak, behind the small access panel. At first, it looked like it was coming from the anchor locker, around where the drain tube comes out of the locker. I don't think this is the source, however, as I've cleaned out the anchor locker and hosed it pretty good, with no water leaking inside. Plus, my wife said that while she was spraying water, there was none coming out of the anchor locker drain, meaning none was getting in. My next thought was that the leak is around the forestay chainplate, as that is right above the anchor locker drain tube. Looking at the chainplate from outside, there is no obvious space for water to get past, though I know water has a way of finding the smallest spaces. My question is, is this a common area to develop a leak? Has anyone else here dealt with a leak around this chainplate? I'm sure the best way to seal this chainplate is to remove it, clean the old sealant off, and reseal. Considering how lazy I am, is there an easier way to resealy this area? Thanks for any suggestions, Jack
