Cockpit leaks
« on: February 19 2020, 15:19 »
My ocean 40 is leaking rainwater into the engine room. It seems to be coming in on the port side. I have rebedded the cockpit drains but still get rain ingress. The classic cause of teak deck leaks is the porely sealed screw holes.,but no areas of caulking look suspect in the cockpit. Any ideas ? Geoff
