I’ve fought four different sources of water entering the keel bilge while running: the seam behind the rub-rail, especially where the cut out is for mounting rollers; the joint sealant lines on the top of the platform (especially by the corners), the aft bilge pump discharge nozzle under the platform rail (there should be a flap that covers the thru-hull when under way) and the rubber exhaust hose joints (clamps loosen over time). For me the worse were the black sealant covering the joints on top. I ran a hose over them, climbed down and was amazed at how much water was entering and while under way those areas are constantly awash. The exhaust joints also were letting in a lot of water. You can also check the rudder posts while under way. A couple cameras placed down there will probably help a lot.
