Buyajet....This is just a guess, but I bet it just dives down to the freshwater distribution manifold. In the aft cabin, it is behind the cabinet doors on the Port side. Check there.

I’ll look. Makes sense. How does water wind up here? Aft stateroom underfloor storage. I stuck head with a light and for the life of me I can’t figure it out
 
I had the same problem. Never even showed up on the survey, which will explain my perception of surveyors! Anyway, I digress.....I can't remember if the mid-salon hatches will pass water to this area or not. But I had a problem with the forward shower drain fitting leaking. It would fill up an area between a stringer and the hull, overflow into the mid-salon hatches, and possibly to that rear hatch. Once I got everything dried up and the drain fixed, I haven't had a problem. Also check to see if your salon AC pan is draining properly to the sump box. If not, it overflows into the mid-salon hatch, which, if memory serves, could end up in the aft cabin. The last possibility is that the freshwater fill line to the tank (the tank is under the sofa in the aft cabin) could be leaking.

Good luck.

Ugh!! Thanks so much for the response. I truly appreciate it. Time to start looking! Be well.
 
I mis-read your post I thought you were looking for the manifold in the aft

The water that collects in the aft floor storage has been a mystery on this site for years. I have had it twice in 4 years. I didn't have it at all last year. If you figure it out please post it ?
 
Just use any digital HD OTA antenna and box. You can also use a digital media box to play movies and or show pics from. The TV may already come with those inputs.

I will. I have a guess that it’s coming from a line “south” or below the main water manifold. I took a mirror and scoped it and saw wetness on the lower floor area but no obvious leaks. When I get it figured I’ll post or it might remain a mystery. Thanks
 
Hey Buya,

Just curious I love the curved monitor but noticed its "only"a monitor, how are your receiving and tuning TV? I understand the M3 connection via HDMI, I dont have that option, YET? Your vessel is looking amazing!!
thanks

I have all 4 TV’s wired to Glomex for local, all wired to KVH 3 TracVision satellite, all 4 to a Direct TV receiver tied to the KVH, then all to different Blue-Rays, then custom USB lightning connectors in several places throughout in cockpit and cabin for iPad or iPhone streaming. Have Fusion WiFi for sound control to all stations via phone and pad, then the KVH has an app to switch satellites for local stations also or just usual DTV. My Garmin’s are tied also so when I get a call or text, I get a caller ID notice on my plotters. I didn’t rig this up, I thought it up and I have an electronic wizard who made all this happen. I’m lucky to know him.
 
I have been upgrading the TV's in the aft, salon and master... I think I have shown you guys everything but the master. The master had a tube tv... The pic shows the big hole. I just couldn't cover it with a flat screen with all that space behind it being wasted. So I came up with a drawer. The sliders lock in and lock out. I made a replica of the opening so I could work on it at home. That's the partical board you see. The first couple of pics are the aft Tv and the salon. Sony DVD player under the aft and master. I will post a pic after final install

Here is the link for the sliders. They are over kill but the only thing I could find short enough that would lock

Really nice! Great idea on the space behind. Well done.

Badass! That drawer would be where I hide all the things!
