Glad you found the source.

The rain finally cleared up and I was able to put the boat in the water to assess the leak... turns out it was coming from the exhaust... where the exhaust pipe and muffler join together it came apart... we put some fiberglass adhesive on it to try and seal it back together... going to let it sit tonight and take it out tomorrow... hopefully she will run as good as before... thanks again for everyone's input...

I had the same issue. Had a crack where the exhaust met the muffler. Fibreglassed it and I've been good since.

Took it out for a while this morning... this definitely solved the issue... I'm hoping the adhesive holds for the long haul... it seems just as good as new right now.

That should hold for now. Maybe consider wrapping some new glass around it this winter.
