While th thru hull scuppers are a pita I don't see the point in raising the floor. since you have access now, I think Dr Gucci's scupper options will save a lot of time, money and be safer for passengers. I'm not a big fan of the through hull scuppers but they are effective underway.
I think you just plug 'em and run drains out the back. Criss-cross tubing or just go straight out and add a pair of Rabuds. Dang, that was a lot of foam. Nice clean work. Keep them updates comin.

While you're going for it, I think strick mentioned raising your transom to 25" - best advice of all me thinks... 25" transoms are a no-brainer, especially if you have the skills to do it yourself. Shaft extension is a cheap improvement and insurance policy.

Cheers McGill
