[honest mark]

i do not know what caused it, i bought the boat used, it was like that, there is no water leaking from it, however there is always a lil water in most bilges, there is a lil in mine, so water may have seaped in for sure, i have to get it fixed properly, my boat is in ludington mi, west part of the state, finding sumone that will do it or has the time to do it is always a huge hassle.
