About the leak

Mitchell - Are you only getting the water when the waves are breaking? Little to no water on flat lakes or inside the harbor? If so - it is likely the hatches. I had the same issue w/my Cobra Tourer. The Cobra hull is thinner than some others, but the hatches are more rigid. The flexing of the hull when the hatches don't allow gaps between them. Plus it can leak from the bolt holes for the hatch locks. One way to check - put a little water in the hull at home, then soapy water around the sealed hatches and locks. Remove the drain plug in the bow and blow in compressed air. You will see bubbles from hatches that leak or water coming out of the hull if the there is a leak.

It you discover any of these, feel free to shoot me a PM and I might be able to provide you w/some ideas for repairs.
