I was installing a transom mount transducer on my '99 Javelin R19 this evening. I started drilling the first hole and just as I punched through the first layer of fiberglass, water began to run out. It was relatively small amount of clean, clear water. The part I am concerned about it the fact the water seems to be in the foam core between the fiberglass. I assume this is an issue and the water should not be there!? Also keep in mind that my boat has not been wet since October of last year. All I can assume is that the water is coming from an improperly sealed bolt or screw going into or through the transom? IE: Engine boat, temp senor screw, etc. Could this water be coming from somewhere else? Is there some other path to this area that I should look at? At this point I'm thinking about drilling a hole at the lowest point to get the water out, then having the outboard remounted and reseal all the bolts and screws. What do you all think?

Thanks,

Cy
