Have a 21' glass Vee with MerCruiser I/O that takes in water from somewhere. Exterior boots look fine, bellows appear o.k. also - and it has not sunk sitting at the dock (yet). However, once I'm underway and look into the engine well there is more water there than desired, like lots.
Have looked close at engine [well area] while underway for leaks, open drain plugs, etc. all seems tight and I see no water coming in but if bilge is off it collect 'big-time'
Have been under the boat in dry dock and hull look o.k. Any clues as to where to look next?
