Water leaks

[Cheechako]

As I remember, the culprit on my Passport for an occasional overhead drip was a hand rail leak... or possible a turning block up there. I pulled the entire overhead panels down and waited for rain. It was the rainy season in florida, so it didn't take long. But I just could not find the path of the water... as it was so minimal. The creeping crack cure actually fixed it, or maybe when I went south shortly after that I didn't get enough rain for it to leak!
Those occasional slow leaks can be a bitch.

How to find that leak!

But when does the witch come into this scheme?

If you get no water in the boat when you wash it with a hose perhaps the leak in rainstorms is from the mast. Is it keel stepped? Check where wiring from antenna and lights comes through to the cabin.
