Surfskis are fragile boats and require regular checking for leaks. Rudder area is a common problem as well as seams around the seat area.
Add some dye coloured water through the bung hole and check for leaks. If you had saltwater inside your boat you should wash it out with some fresh anyway.
Cheers
