Be sure and check the top of your cockpit..........I started taking on lots of water and couldn't find the leak until I discovered a crack in the top of my cockpit right under the rudder control:

I have a new from the dealer (purchased in march) pa14,I noticed that when I have taken it out, it takes on quite a bit of water, I have checked the hull and cannot find any holes /cracks. It has been garage kept, and on a custom rack for storage. I have not dropped or hit anything that could have dmged it. Is this a known issue? Any ideas what /where to check Thnx |

Check your drain plugs. I would put some water in it seal the plugs, then tip it up and see if any water runs out. |

A friend of mine had a PA12 which leaked at the point where the re-enforcments within the rear scuppers end near the top of the scupper holes. |

The dealer should be able to help you with this. There is a FAQ on how to locate a leak that can easily be done at home if needed: http://www.hobiecat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=12575 |

Any Hobie dealer should be able to help you. Especially since you have relocated. |
