I noticed my garboard drain cover was a little loose when I installed the plug. So I decided to reseal it. I removed the screws and garboard drain cover and a little bit of water drained out of the bilge. I think some of the water got in the bottom screw hole and used a heat gun to dry it out. While doing that, I could see small drops of water coming out of the screw hole. The water drops were developing about 3/16" inside the hole, at the 10 o-clock position from the same spot every time. See attached pic for location. Had to use 5 Q-tips to dry it out. Is this anything to worry about? Should I drill a small hole besides it to see if there is any more water?
Also, I noticed a spider crack in the gelcoat above the hole for the garboard, see attached pic. Is this anything to be concerned about?
