What do I use to seal the bolt holes? How do I go about re-sealing the window?
The wood isn't soft, so I think I can sand it and seal it and put in something new.

Bummer Cori. Not sure which/what bolts you're talking about. To reseal the
windows they need to be pulled out, mating surfaces cleaned up and new butyl tape applied. Tighten the frame down in three or four passes. From just holding to fairly tight. The steps gives the tape time to do it's oozing thing, warm temps help. Any excess can be trimmed off with and old credit card or something like that. If the floor isn't soft, that tells me your leak is new. I'd just let the floor dry out for now, no sense in replacing/covering it till the water issue is solved. BTW, a floating flooring installed over the carpet isn't a good idea, too much flex.
Leaks can be very hard to find. As you live in an area that gets a lot of rain, might try a driveway camp out during the next good rain. The door, refer,
windows and vents. From what you say I'd rule out the plumbing...at least till you use it
. Ley us know what you find.
FWIW, I used to park all my stick rigs with 2x8s only under one side so any water ran off and didn't pool up. Only had one leak and that was while out camping and was able to repair it before any damage was done.
