I did not do scupper transom drains in my 20'. It would just be one more spot (two actually) to soak water in the transom core if not sealed well. I have deck drains to the bilge which I just pump out if under way. Only time I need them is when the kids / dog keeps jumping out the boat and when they climb back in and shakes all the water off. I always trailer my boat and keep the main drain plug out while at rest in case if it rains. I would add them if it was in a slip or if I went offshore any though.
