I've had my C25 for 12 years now, it has a bilge pump with a typical float switch. The bilge always had a little water in the base but hardly enough to trigger the float switch. I frankly never paid much attention to it. Recently a potential buyer passed on the sale because of this. When hauled the bottom is solid with no soft spots anywhere. Do these boats sometimes seep a tiny bit of sea water into the bilge ? Is this unusual? I'm not planning on doing anything about it just curious.
