Hey George,
Can you give us an update on how that reconfigured drain/scupper system is working? Thanks -Will

Re: reconfigured drain system
 

Will,
So far so good. Splashed the boat for the first time a little over a month ago and I have since then have had up to 4 passengers including myself at one time aboard and my feet have been dry. I am very happy with the set up.

Are you satisfied with DF performance with the transom mount transducer mounted where it is? Dink

Re: reconfigured drain system
 

I wondersd the same thing Dink. Usually they say to mount on the stb. side.

Re: reconfigured drain system
 

So far I have not any problems, I was unaware that you were suppose to mount on the starboard side

Re: reconfigured drain system
 

I love the idea for the reconfigured drain system. Do you have any photos of the plumbing looking into the hatch. I am in the process of rebuilding a 20' and a 23'. I hate the old drain system because it is not act as a selfbailing deck. Does your system act as a self bailing deck?

Re: reconfigured drain system
 

I dont have any photos off hand of the plumbing but all that it is, is a pvc pipe glassed in. I will get photos of it shortly. Yes when the boat is at rest it does self bail. The other day me and a buddy were offshore drifting a grouper spot and I was sitting at helm and he was a little forward of me and it was still self bailing. I weigh about 200 and so does he and we had a 128 qt cooler in the back full of ice and a full tank of gas along with all the other gear.

Re: reconfigured drain system
 

that's awesome. My biggest complaint of my 20 is the drainage system. If you can't get the photos, could you do some measurements for me? I would be forever grateful. I would love to get my hands on the placement for both the inside and outside locations of the holes you cut. Thanks again and that is hands down the best idea I have seen on here yet!
