Hi,
I pulled my boat out of the water today, thinking that I was taking on water.  After a lot of searching I found out that the head drain line going to the holding tank and the cold water line going to the head sink were leaking.  Well, to make a long story short...  I can see some water forward of the of the mid cabin bilge (under the floor).  We can't seem to get at it, but it does drain very, very, very slowly to the mid cabin bilge (but I don't see any drain holes for the water to move aft).  

Does anyone know how to get to this area so I can clean the water up without taking up the carpet...  Is there an access area that I don't know about? Maybe there is no forward bilge, forward of the mid cabin bilge...

Thanks in advance!

If the boat is still out of the water just put it bow high the water will drain to the bilge. There are cutouts in the stringers that allow the water to move aft.
