Default Re: Leaking floor scuppers

I heard from an old SeaCraft fan that what they used to do to the 23's with twin engines was to put a couple of clamshell vents over the tubes on the bottom of the hull with the open part facing to the stern. The clamshell created a vacuum even at idle speed to help pull any water out because they were low riders with the twin v-6's. I might try this this year if I find the time to first replace my tubes. You might give it a shot since you dont have the little deflecters there already. I have the deflecters and even then once in a while a quick shot of water will come up running in chop from wavetop to wavetop, I imagine with nothing there you are getting some good water running in there?
