It is accessible from the anchorlocker. There is a round plastic cover that can be removed.
These plastic covers are also well known for water leaks in the front cabin.

Checked the cover plates in the anchor locker and they are not leaking. So I think the aft post of the port bow pulpit is leaking. Has anyone experience in re-bedding it.

There can also be a leak around the anchor locker drain.

Can anyone tell me if the bow pulpit on the SO 37 is through bolted. I assume there is access to the underside of the deck through the V berth.

If i remember right you access the aft ones from the cabin and the forward ones by removing the wooden panel at the top of the V-berth.
The friend I sold her to ended up doing it over the winter and it was simple enough. Use butyl tape rather than sika as is doesn't go off so will allow a bit of flex.

Any chance you could contact the person who bought your boat or give me their email address if they don't mind.
Thanks
