I can't tell you where the water is coming from but I have owned a 2000 35 Open and now own a 2005 38 open and the compartment under the engines in these boats are designed not to drain fluid to lower parts of the boat.  This to prevent any engine fluids from being pumped overboard.  Anytime I clean the engines I use a wet vac to suck the water from under the engines.  Hope this helps.

I have been thinking about this. How exactly do you clean the engines?
