My best guess: On the picture that JBarca placed the arrow, notice the metal trim piece that holds the rubber seal. That metal appears to be the width of the stud and wall inside and out. If you follow that metal trim all the way around the top of the slide and check the caulking very carefully you might find where water is getting through. If water is getting inside that track it could follow a path from up top or the side down to the floor area and spread where it meets the floor. That could explain why the slide floor has no damage but the floor right next to it does. It appears the most damage is where that metal meets the floor. I fought a leak on my slide that I could only see once I was on a ladder and actually poking at the caulk.I noticed the caulk was no longer binding to the fiberglass and would only open about the width of a razor blade when poking and pulling at it with a pick.
