though floor scuppers

[Scott]

There is a lot of info about scuppers throughout the site… but in a nut shell

A couple guys in the corner of the boat will cause water to come up onto the deck. That’s why the rubber plugs go in, just don’t forget to take them out when you leave the boat for the night, the deck is self-bailing.

If those tubes are corroded, as many are, they can allow water into the bilge !!!! They are mounted in wooden blocks and water can seep into the bilge since its underwater at rest.

Fellowship even came up with an insert for the scupper ….” The Vortex” lets the water out but not in ... almost works like a duckbill.

At the very least make sure the brass tubes are sound and are sealed to the hull ( most important from the outside) This goes without saying for ALL the thru hulls at or under the water line !!!
