Water in the bilge and storage area under the sleeping pad
Recently purchased a 2006 25' Nordic Rage with a factory 496 HO. She only had 93 hours of use and had been stored in a warehouse since new. She looks and runs like new. Reason for this post: After running around for 2-3 hours between idle and some high speed cruising, there is 2-3 gallons of water in the bilge and more concerning, the carpet in the storage area under the sleeping pad in the bow is damp. Nobody has gotten wet and then entered the boat. Haven't gone over any wakes that caused any spray to enter the boat. I've checked all hose clamps and tightened any that seemed a bit loose. Does anybody have a clue where the water/moisture is coming from??

Bellows can be one as well as the sea pump housing or any of the lines on the raw water side. From my experience, it’s a bellow, the pump housing, or the output line from pump to oil cooler.
