Points well taken.  I would assume we are getting the same in the bilge in the summer, but I am sure the pumps get it out.  I do know the water does come in during the time the boat is out of the water.  No, the boat is not covered.I guess I will try the Kool Aid trick.  Sounds like a good idea.

I've been thinking about this kool aid thing.  If I don't find the leak, I will just switch to jello, dump it and some vodka in the bilge and have bilge jello shots!

My mystery leak problem appears to be finally solved.  The repair to the small crack between the rudder shaft tube and the skeg seems to have fixed my problem as my boat has been back in the water for three days now and the bilge shows no sign of moisture.  The yard manager wants to keep my boat until Monday just to make sure.  Now I have to decide what my next project should be.
