1978 searay 260 water in cabin not draining

[78searay]

Just picked up a restored 1978 searay sundancer 260. After it rains water collects in the cabin area and does not drain. Anyone have any thoughts on where to look for the issue?

If I remember correctly there is a very small bilge area under the last step going down into the cabin.There should be a small bilge pump in there.Reach under there and see what you have.Charlie

I would be a little more worried about how it's getting in. :%

Yes I am worried about how its getting in there but also needed to make sure its not going to stay there and cause more issues after the fact.

I will look for the bilge pump under the last step and check that out. Now that I pumped out all the water I found a possible drain hole in the head area, but it got to dark to trace it back and look for blockage.

Does anyone know any one in the Orlando area to do some electical work and other small work on this boat that they trust? I am having issues finding shops that seem trust worthy.
