A couple of photos would help us to understand what you have. There have  
been several variations over the years and some previous owners  
modifications.

Went  out for an afternoon sail 74degrees, 10mph winds. Should have  been
wonderful but when stopped I could hear water coming into the  boat
somewhere. Went down below and water was very slowly rising. Pulled  the
floor up around the centerboard trunk and water was bubbling up through  3
holes in a cap held down by 6 screws on top of the centerboard cap.  Pulled
the boat back onto its trailer and took the 6 screw cap off. Looks  like
perhaps some tackle system was attached there for the centerboard  pendant.
My question is how is the pendant supposed to attach to the  centerboard so 
I
can seal my bilge fountain.
