We finished the new scupper drains today. Originally the deck drained through 6 little drains no bigger than a shower drain. We fiberglassed over those and put in 4 larger scupper drains. It was very easy for the original drains to be clogged by leaves, plus everyone of them leaked water into the boat. The scuppers are a much better and safer drain. BoatUS says most boats sink while setting in their slip. Stupid things like inadequate drains old hoses and the like. We have many things to upgrade. This was a big one, and I am glad it's done.
