I just sold my 05 35x and had the same problem except it was like 8 " in the cabin foot well. Dealer thought it was the bow light, then the hatch ect... Never got fixed! I wont buy another fountain.

Luckly my 32 is always dry as a bone, not a drop since I resealed my rubrail.

My 27 used to get water some water under the cabin floor. I found it to enter from the bilge as many here said. Bilge gets water, then runs foward into the cabin. But do to the bow sitting lower than the bilge, the water can't drain back out unless the front is jacked way high. Plus with the drain holes not being at the very bottom of the bulkheads, water was always trapped. What I did was to put a couple rubber tapered stoppers in the drain holes in the engine compartment bulkhead. Since then, no water could ever run forward and never had another drop in the cabin floor.

I agree with all about the construction junk left behind. UNFUGGIN BELIEVABLE!

I had the same problem on my 2000 Lightning 35 Classic. I finally figured out that it was comming from the Ice chest. As long as I pull the plug on the built in ice chest and get all of the ice out of it before going on the trailer the front bilge stays dry. But if I leave ice or water in the ice chest and put the boat on the trailer the water goes forward and stays there until I get it out with a shop vac.

My 32's Ice chest drained onto the top of the gas tank. Not sure what Fountain was thinking since that area does not have drains! I could see a huge water soaked foam problem if the cooler was used in that condition. I ran a drain line from the ice chest to the bilge so there was no way for water to get into under the flooring. Just used it for dry storage though, but just in case.....

Now the AC sits where the cooler was. :)
