No but it is almost certainly coming from your Air conditioner or your anchor locker. Check the easy stuff first, is the AC leaking at the thru hull outlet? Also, is the drip pan over flowing from clogged drains overboard? That is where I would start....

X2 on the anchor locker the drain can get clogged. On my 342 the drain is a little higher then sides. The drain from the windless only drain on the rode then there a drain hole under the rode.

+++. On the above. The AC condensate can plug up easy, or the pan rusting out too on the older models. 

You can access the anchor rode locker from the deck plate behind the panel under the mirror.

Anchor rode locker:  drain plugged OR there is a square piece of starboard screwed to the bottom of the rode locker too. If not caulked well it will leak past it and into the area you noted. I pulled mine and resealed. 

You mentioned you pulled the AC unit?  Did you block off the AC condensate drain tube?  Block off / close the AC raw water tube?  If it is open and laying low it can siphon.

Also check the seal on the port windows or rug under bed.

With the heavy rain a few days ago water was on the foreword bunk AC has been removed about a mount ago so not the AC

Thank you guys for all the ideas.

  Will keep you posted as tonight we are going to have more rain in Ct.

I did plug the two holes in my windlass anchor box. Just trying.
