Water in galley

[Bhobo23]

Water in floor galley. I was wondering what is the purpose of this hole. Water come out through this causing the carpet floor to flood. Is the boat leak somewhere or clogged up? How do I fix and stop the leak. This is 2005 signature 260.

That is the drain down to the bilge.

If you have water backing up, you have a serious leak and most likely a dead bilge pump and plugged lumber holes

Do you have a head, shower in the area? In my (older) bayliner the shower used a sump to pump out. I had to replace once. If it comes on but still getting wet plugged hole perhaps.

Is there any panels that open? Most have an opening hatch, or step that will pull up. You might be dealing with a plugged limber hole or bad pump in that area. I know some bayliners sit lower in the bow So a bilgepump is needed there.I would be checking the aft bilge also, and any hoses, thru-hulls and such.is it freshwater from the boat itself or lake water, or rain?

Also, do you keep in the water ot on trailer? Covered or no? Shows up when using or when you get there for the weekend?
