Lumpy weather will cause some water to enter through the rudder cables.

Place a Home Depot grout sponge in the hull to collect the water, and carry a bilge pump until you get this sorted out.

when people say "less than a gallon" I always suspect seepage at some point. A big enough guy in the Sport will likely have some seepage in the rudder cable entry points.
