2004 Rinker 270 Fiesta Vee The cabin has been flooded by rainwater, but there's no water in the engine room. Is there any water connection from the cabin to the engine room? Is there no water drainage from the cabin to the engine compartment?

                            Can't say for sure on the 2004, but my 2007 has a bulkhead at the aft cabin. Underneath the aft mattress you'll see a compartment that holds the AC water intake, shower sump drain, and forward bilge pump...the aft wall here is the bulkhead. All water forward of this (under the floor) should drain aft into that compartment and removed by the forward bilge pump. 

    Just curious, do you know how the rainwater got into the cabin?

                            If you trailer, tilt it up and it will drain. Otherwise, you have two pumps!
