No, not the big hole in the bilge at the right rear.
There's another drain hole; actually, a tube. If you have a mysterious hull
leak, maybe you should have a look at this tube. What I'm talking about is a
drain pipe that allows possible water in the very front compartment (under the
spare tire and in front of the steering linkages) to drain into the bilge near
the shifter base. This drain tube poses a leak condition to the main bilge and
the forward compartment.
The tube is steel, and was welded to the hull at both ends. Enough rust, or some
physical damage while working on the steering, and you can have one or two hull
leaks.
