Default water in bilge

I have a 92- 25' foot center console. There's constantly water in bilge, enough water which keeps the bilge pump running all the time. Anyone have any suggestions?

Something is leaking. Maybe put it on trailer and fill bilge and see where it leaks out of. Don’t know much about the cc bilges

I/O or outboard ?

If I/O the typical issue is the bellows.

Probably one of the thru hull fittings that supply the baitwell or wash down pump.
