Leaks

Can the speakers be a source of a cabin leak? I think I have my midship leak handled on my toCa but I was wondering about washing the inside of the boat and hitting those speakers with water where would it go?

    Are they in the radar arch? I think there's drain holes where they attach to the deck. Otherwise if it's in the deck, I assume it should end up in the mid-berth sump and be pumped to the engine compartment.

    Speakers inside the cabin shouldn’t leak

    It is the cockpit speakers possibly leaking into the aft cabin. I would hope the cabin speakers wouldn't leak.

    and if I have water in my cabin, I would not have to worry about anything leaking, I'd be on the bottom of the lake! I think there is one on the side by the mid ship berth area...don't know why I did not think of this before! So far, however, I have not had any more leaking.
