    Water in the bow???

    We just got back from 4 good days on Lake Mead I will post some pics when I get them off my cam.
    I have been noticing water in the bow everytime we go out. Seems to be about 1/2" up at the vary front and can work its way back to the starboard locker. I made sure no waves were taken over the bow and my bow sack is not leaking.
    Doese anyone else see this or have any ideas where it may be coming from?

    Check the tightness on the bow ring. Mine was loose once, I noticed that the carpet was wet, after I tightened it, never had another problem.

          Thanks guys, It felt tight but I never put a wrench on it. That has to be it I cant think of anything else it could be.

            I have the same problem and couldn't for the life of me figure it out. I found this post so I checked my bow eye and it wiggles like a club dancer

                If you have the bow lights, check those as well.

                  Do you have quick connect fittings? All of my quick connects fittings leak under pressure. I would check your fittings to your sacs. I also know that when my buddies are pulling me, they will dunk the bow every now and then and not tell me.

                    Good point on the freind (or in my case the wife) dunking the bow while I am riding.
                    I checked with my son and his coment was "not this trip". I need to check the bow lights and the D ring.

                            Do you have anybody with a bladder control problem that sits in the bow?
