Water in storage lockers of Compac Horizion

[kobo]

I took delivery of my Compac Horizon Cat 5 months ago. I simply love it. I am an experienced sailor. At my age this boat is perfect. However I have a problem that I have not solved as yet. Maybe someone will have some insight. When ever I go sailing even in fairly calm seas I end up with water in my storage lockers under the berths. I called Compac an they said it could be the shaft log. If it is the shaft log I can't see how that water is getting into the lockers. They also said it could be the center board tube where the lifting line goes through. Given time I am sure I will figure this out, I was just hoping some else would have an answer to this problem.
Thanks for any responses.

I see that this is an old post, but I had the same problem so am going to respond. On our Horizon Cat, the bow eye (the loop you hook the winch onto when loading onto the trailer) had loosened a bit. That piece of hardware is under water much of the time when sailing and will accumulate a good bit of water. Simple fix, just tighten the two nuts against the plate on the bow eye and all is well.
