As I stated in one of my posts, I feel water is entering the tank cavity by way of the fuel line tunnel in the stern. The sump is on the starboard side, and when the plug is out a little water pools in there. When the boat is loaded down, the sump fills up. During turns the water travels through the fuel tunnel into the cavity. In my opinion, the fuel line should be of a stainless steel type and pass through a rubber gromet with rubber hose on either end.
