I got a Klein Tools non invasive moisture meter from Amazon to check the effectiveness of my efforts to find the source of excessive moisture in the foam under a port hole. After lots of probing and replacing gaskets, etc. to no avail I started using Capt. Tolley's Creeping Crack Cure on the mid cleat bolts, the screws that hold down the hand rail and the canvas snap buttons my moisture meter is now showing no leaks. I loaned the moisture meter to our dock master and he found the source of the leaks on the exterior of our fleet of Harbor 20 sailboats. Several areas on the deck and other places that had holes drilled for halyards, lines, etc. were de-laminating around the holes. My meter gave him a notion on the extent of damage. I can't remember but the meter is not big bucks to buy.
