Hey Folks,
I need your advice, suggestions and collective wisdom. Water just started 
seeping into the bilge. About an inch every two days. While searching for the 
cause I noticed that the water in the head was up beyond it's usual level and 
pumped it down. We have never used the head, but I keep water in it so gaskets 
down's dry out etc. I then noticed that the water was up to within two inches of 
the top in the holding tank. The next day the water was all the way to the 
top of the holding tank and I think that this is the source of the water in the 
bilge. The area around the head is tight and dry. How is the lake water 
getting in??Where do I start looking and is there anything I can do as a temporary 
fix? I'll be back up to the lake in two days and I hope the boat is still on 
top of the water!
All and any suggestions will be appreciated,
