Default Re: Scuppers and cap leaks on the Seafari

My scuppers have been glassed up on my Seavette and I'm glad. I don't worry at all. I have 2 2000 pumps on 2 auto switches. On the self bailing boats what if a hose comes off or the plastic through hull breaks? On my boat with it sitting so low in the stern I would prefer not to have self bailing. I have a friend who is in the salvage business and he said that 80% of the smaller boats that he has raised (25 and smaller) have been due to the self bailing decks sinking the boats.
