Re: cockpit scuppers 20 SF20
Replacing the deck and raising it 2 inches is a lot of work. My deck is solid, and I had no reason to change things. I think every boat is going to float a little different. If after getting it the water and finding this a real problem, I could raise the deck. But it would be the last thing to do if I could help it. I'll be moving my battery from the front console to the back of the boat. I'm bow heavy not stern.
Wet foam stringers could account for a lot of problems. Did this boat (all) have problems right from the factory??? I don't know. Bill Potter would. I agree that the deck needs to be raised to allow the water to flow.
None of the boat test articles on the site talk about standing in a pool of water.
