Hello!
I am a new boat owner, have a 1988 Tiara 2700 that I have been repairing for the last 8 months and its going well. Last week we had a bit of a rough ride for an hour in some large wind swell off Huntington Beach, CA. The usual screws loosened, my bilge pump hose sprung a small leak and things got wet. BUT what is concerning is that the floor of the cabin is still damp. I would have thought it would have dried up after a week in the hot sun. Wondering if water gets beneath the floor somehow. This area is totally separate from the motors compartment/bilge right? I dont see a hatch or an opening to the area in the cabin. Any suggestions or feedback is very much appreciated. ? -Max
