Exceptional condition, inside, outside, bilges and engines.
That's the best trick. Talc powder will show where it's coming from. It's trial and error. Capt. George

I also found that the sink drains or water feeds to either the head or galley sink may be leaky. Both these feed into the mid salon bilge. Not a lot of water but some.
Good luck

Also check that the fittings on the fresh water tank are not cracked or loose... Do you notice it more after you fill fresh water etc? Is it worse when it rains etc?
