Filled the freshwater tank and took the Tigercat out the other day boat done great. But I noticed little under half an inch of water in bilge The bilge pumps work because when I loaded the boat and water ran back it pumped water out is this normal the water was clear I was in the ocean for about 5 hours . Thanks for any help :)

There's several places rain water can get in. My port and stb access hatches on the stern leak rain water. Not real concerned because I remove doors and frames to give me a little extra room to get in there. My biggest leaks were the 4 X 6" inspection plates above both tanks and in the motor wells. I replace the orings and also caulked around the flanges. How'd she run? Top speed? fuel burn?

Do you have a fresh water shower....the pump in the bilge has been known to leak.
