    I suspect your previous test should give you a pretty good idea if it were the hull itself? Maybe start looking over the bilge and livewell plumbing? Does it happen every time on the water, regardless if you fill the livewell or not?

    I would say R2Tracker is on point for the next step plug all your intakes on outside of hull for livewell and fill up livewell with garden hose. Then check around all fittings, hoses and livewell pumps for leak.

    Tighten (ALL) hose connections and check speedometer hose. Thats all I can think of.

    seems to be more severe when live wells are on ? I have replaced the pumps and the return holes seals in the hull . I am going to check the seals in the front live well drain .
