I have a Lund SSV-14 that has also recently started to leak, only when the boat was underway. I traced the problem to the 25 hp Honda outboard, which throws a tremendous about of spray across the transom of the boat at crusing speed. Apparently, the pressure from this spray had forced it's way under the external transom plate, and water was entering along the rivets in the transom. I have re-sealed the transom plate and all seems well. Not sure if this is your issue, but thought I would pass the learning along......kjp1400
