Terry, I was also thinking about your scupper drains, and I wondered if they'd do a little better job of draining water off the deck if they were recessed in a well below deck level like those in the 20 ft. hulls?
They might but few things you have to understand. If you drop them you most likely will go below water line level.

If you look at the picture you will see a tick mark that will be a 90 degree bulk head right behind and to the side to help them channel water (this will be a stern bulk head and side storage compartment that will run forward).

Last how much water is going to come over board. The boat will sit on a lift during rain storms and I don't think all the extra work will be worth the result.
