Pro Angler 360 water in hull

I have a 2021 Pro Angler 14 360. After each each outing I find a small amount of water in the hull, less than a cup of water each time. This occurs even in clam conditions with no water coming over the front hatch. I have checked everywhere I can think of and there are no cracks or damage to the hull. I know less than a cup of water isn’t that big of a deal, I’m just wondering is any other 360 owners have experienced this and if a common cause has been discovered.

Could be condensation.

Hey Matt,

If there were changes in temperatures throughout the day I would think condensation as well, but this is occurring when the temperatures are pretty consistent. I’m thinking it may be coming in from where the 360 steering shaft runs to the drive.

Usually, it is a warm boat when you put it in cold water.

The steering tube is also a possibility. Primarily if you use a trolling motor?

An air pressure / soapy water test could detect the leak.
