Update and conclusion -- a week later running the boat, coming back into the harbor we smelled diesel fuel. Got back to dock and found a significant leak. A small leak because of a bad fitting turned into a big one when the line completely came loose. The bilge coming on so frequently was the diesel fuel accumulating, then when on plane, rushing to the aft bilge. We shop vac'd the remaining diesel out. Glad we caught it before a catastrophe or any more diesel was pumped out.
