Need help finding/repairing a water leak and soft spots.

2004 WW FB2200

I could use a little advice finding a water leak in my trailer that has caused soft spots in the floor. I circled the areas with the soft
spots in the picture below.



Since I've owned the trailer I have fixed a few minor leaks (from toilet, toilet sprayer, shower trim, window trim, etc). Shortly after that the first spot developed (blue circle). I thought it might have been from the original leaks.

Around a year later I noticed the two other soft spots developing. I believe the leak may be coming from my shower drainage. I have it parked at my jobsite for about two months with full hook ups every summer. Every time I shower I notice a drip coming from a bolt/nut that's pretty much directly under the shower. I recall it leaking from there the year before but it would only do it every once in awhile. Now its every time shower.

The soft spots are only in those areas with the circles. The floor of the shower feels solid.

My plan was to remove the shower shell and any flooring necessary, repair any leaks and replace the flooring that was damaged.

Any advice?

Thank you for your time.
