Hi Too Fly:

Wow, I can’t believe you found this one in the archives back in 2003 I had a lot of fun with this thread and used the “VORTEX” for several years.
I decided to kick it up a notch on my boat and have done several additional projects on her since then one of which was to spend lots of $ and days of work to do things in more of a traditional manor. One of which was my scuppers

Picture below


As for the "VORTEX"
I looked around for some better pictures but cant find any. On the second page of this thread are some pictures that if you cut and past and then in large that might help.

Bottom line is this - get two PVC fittings cut the top off, add a finger pull, tape a glove finger to the threaded part with tape, cut a slit in the tip of the glove finger, and add one or two o rings and stick her in.
The “VORTEX” do work very good and you don’t have to do any major scupper projects on the boat.

I had help finding it.

Very nice scupper job!

However, I'm stilling having issues with visualizing how the Vortex works, especially the Solo plastic sauce cup version. Mainly, I'm not sure how it performs like a check valve? I suppose I need to try throwing one together and testing it out. I'll give it a whirl.

Thanks,
Paul
