Here is a short video of a leak source that I found on my C22...so far my theory has proven itself correct...watch this brief video and check your boat for this leak source. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GJ71msYKPs&feature=plcp Full screen is best...shot with GoPro Hero wide angle.

Bill, that certainly makes sense to me. Good clip, thanks

On my C-26 I have a rubber welcome mate that I keep under the boards.

I had the same type of issue, but just used sealer to close the gap at the bottom of the channel on the inside.

Ran out and had a look at this area on the project, and the caulk monster had already been there..all down the side guides and at the bottom. Think I'll at least do like Bill and add a weep slot..

I've not had this leak but I think your finding it and the solution is fantastic.

Thanks
Alan
