Steve,
Yes, when you plane off and when you come off of a plane, the edge of the platform submerges. The water pressure during this process easily can force water through the smallest of openings. If you can see light, water can enter. As you are running, water coming off the hull bottom can also spray upward and under the shoe box fitting at the platform rubrail. I have seen a few boats with this issue.
Good Luck!
