Water on carpet floor lower cabin

[SanMarino25]

I have a 1990 Larson San Marino when the boat is sitting on the trailer in our driveway after a rain the carpet in the lower cabin gets wet and I’m not sure where it’s coming in from… Just wondering if anyone else had the same problem?

Time for the garden hose and start looking for where it is coming in. Have someone drench it while you look around.

The only place that it’s wet is on the carpet floor in the lower cabin there’s no wetness on the sides anywhere to indicate it coming in from there

Check all the caulking everywhere. Most likely the rain is coming in from the rub rail, or the hatch, or the windshield screws

Yes thank you I checked all of that and there is no wetness anywhere in the undercabin ceiling or sides only wetness on the floor… I think it’s possibly coming in from where the engine covers go on I still had the boat hooked up to the truck so everything was leaning forward. I wonder if possible after the bilge filled up underneath and came into the floor somehow…?

yes.

yes.

That’s what I’m thinking as well I will keep the boat tilted back from now on with the drain plug at the back open when in the driveway

I had same problem with my Larson Cabrio 244. I flex sealed inside my anchor locker an now it stays dry.

As long as you don't seal the anchor locker drains to the exterior.

Yes that would be a mistake
