the only place water can be is in any of the sealed areas i.e the seating and bouyancy tanks both in the cabin and stern area. i can only suggest you drill small drain holes low down in each sealed section, and reseal after wards with resin and mat. the only other place water could be is in the keel though i doubt if it could be much. otherwise unless someone has double skined her apart from the tanks there is nowhere else water can be trapped, hope this helps.
