Ray,
Don't quite understand when you say " water is seeping in from the walls
of the bilge." Are you sure the water is not coming from around the
keel bolts?
There is no way water is coming in from the bottom of the keel....while
your boat is on the lift, that would be the time to clean it and paint
with antifouling.
If there is that much water coming into the bilge, you have to find out
where it is coming from and address it.

Hello:
It is that time of season for the big Splash. I have run into an
issue since I put it in the water. My bilge pump is running
continuously. I took a close look and I am noticing the water is
seeping in from the walls of the bilge. Prior to launching I took a
real close look at the keel. I saw no issues, no smile, nothing. The
only part I did notice was the very bottom of the keel. Since the
keel rests on the bottom of the cradle, I cannot do much inspection
prior. This time I happen to see it while on the lift. I was not
a smooth like the sides of the keel. In fact it was not good at
all. Does that sound right. I see now water coming from any other
area. Anybody have an recommendations on what to do?
