BJowner,
Mine gets water in it everytime I run her and it is coming from the flex shaft. It just draws water. I have even stuffed the flex drive tube with grease and then installed the shaft and it still draws water.
Even my 1/8th scale Zenoa Hydro draws water and I have to empty the boat before I run it again.
Check your water hoses for spilts or leaks. You may have to trim the ends of the hoses then use a1/16th of a inch of hose, like a donut, to place around the outside of the hose to make a better seal.
