Water in my boat after it rains!!!!!

I am the owner of a com-pac 16'. I am doing a referb in the water and have yet to sail her. I am frustrated because after a good rain there is a decent amount of water inside. At first I suspected the scuppers, but they a dry. The hull seems solid and the water is not coming in through the hatch. I went and got inside during our last rainfall and noticed water dripping in through the hull and deck joint. It did not look like alot but I guess over a few days of rain it could accumulate. My question is I have read post's about leaking hull Deck joints when the boat is underway and heeling, but what about when it is just sitting at the dock. Thanks Michael

Hi Michael,

     I had the same problem.  You can view my answer to this question under "Help -- Rainwater leak & damage" in the CP-23 model specific section.
