Help please

Hi all. Help please.

I have a Aquador 28c which I thought had a water leak as the dehumidifier is taking on about a pint of water some days. However I’ve stripped the interior down to the bilges and there was only a tiny bit of water in them. I dried the bilges out thoroughly with paper towels so it is bone dry and put the hose over the whole boat for about 10 minutes. No water at all seems to be leaking into the boat and after the 10 minute soaking all the bilges were still dry.

My questions are..

Are the bilges the lowest part of the hull ? ie would all water ingress eventually end up in the bilges ?

Could it just be condensation and is it normal for a dehumidifier to take about a pint of water out a day ?

Many thanks if anyone can help.
