Tom,
FWIW, I get a similar amount of water in the boat as you're finding,
most comes down the mast. However, water under the settee is most
likely from hull/deck joint. My boat had also been on the hard for
three years before my purchase, and the lockers under the port settees
were all getting some water. It's not a big deal to tighten all the
screws in the toe rail, as that's probably the source of the water.
Takes two people of course, one above to hold the screw, the other below
to tighten the nut. Don't overdo it, as you don't want to squeeze the
sealant out, just snug them up. It took care of it for me.
Sad to hear of Art's passing, he made the 35-1 look really fast.

Randy, Neil, Bill,
Thank you all for the advice. I've marked the hull with a washable
marker and will check for water next weekend. The mast is in, and it
hadn't crossed my mind that the water was coming through it. I'll add
replacing the mast boot and installing a garboard drain to my list of
projects.
Thanks again,
Tom
