Do as airjunky says,...
Drain the coolin' system, block it off/ isolate it, 'n plumb in a pressure gauge, 'n air fittin' to pressurize it,...
It oughta hold 15 psi pretty much Forever,....
If it don't,... follow the sound of the escapin' air,...

If it were the exhaust manifolds leaking that much water it would have hydro-locked, at the very least you would see excessive moisture on the plugs. I have a crossover setup with a thermostat and boat in 34 degree water and have never had my oil look milky, I'm betting on intake or head gaskets.

sicktrickrick I'm local to you so let me know if you need anything. I was thinking along the lines of Griff at first but appears to be more than just condensation. Your boat might have been talked about to me a couple weeks ago at a local bar by the owner. She was asking me about size limits on Clinton Lake.
