I think it's pretty clear, then, that it's coming from below, assuming it's
not raining. Is the carpet glued down, or what?

If that turns out to be the case, I'm sending you a bottle of bourbon. I
hope I don't have to.

Are you getting water in the bilge, with it getting so high as to be wetting
the carpet? Other than rain or water splashing into your boat I can not
think of a scenario that would cause the carpeting to get wet without the
bilge filling up with water.

Get it out of the water and have a pro check it out. As Chuck said the
likely sources are the outdrive bellows or through hull fittings.

If you draw raw vs. fresh water the intake and through hull is most likely
in the engine compartment bilge area. It could also be midship with an
access panel in the floor to service it.
