I'm amused by the beer thing...and it's a great idea that I'm sure works well. Fortunately, I don't have much problem with water coming in, it's just slow going out. I was trying to find someone who might have put larger scuppers in. I have a 21 Trophy (for sale) and it has four scuppers with the little rubber flap deal on the transom. A lot of Trophy owners pitched them in favor of the Rabud ball type. I heard someone say one time "you can judge a good offshore cockpit by the scuppers", for whatever thats worth. I think I am going to re-do the deck this winter (there are some cracks to fix) and put in larger scuppers. Maybe your Vortex in a larger diameter will be the answer....thanks for the idea...
