V21 boat - where do the rod holders drain ?

[Destroyer]

Greenie... look up my post where I showed my boat with the deck off. My floor was soft, so I removed it to strengthen it.. I redid all the wood on the underside and then glassed it to seal it from getting wet like that again. But when I had the cap off, I found that all the foam was soaked... I literally filled several garbage cans with completely saturated foam... to answer your question, no, the water does NOT drain anywhere that I could find. Yes, there were some very small holes between the compartments, but with the foam in the way of them most of the water just stays trapped in the compartments. That saturated foam added LOTS of pounds of weight, to say nothing of the stink from sitting there. I had to carve it all out and then refoam everything. What a pain. .,... But now my deck is strong, and my boat is several hundred pounds lighter. And when I had the cap off I took the opportunity to reinforce the transom where the bracket is... there's a gap of about 3/4 of an inch where the bracket comes through, and I filled that with putty and then glassed across that to the stringer on both sides.

Use Reelapeelin's solution to fix the problem or do like I did and just use a solid pipe cap on the bottom to prevent any water from getting into the boat in the first place. (You get them from home despot in the plumbing section).

Reel, that's one hell of a great solution to the problem. I was thinking of going with these units from eBay, http://www.ebay.com/itm/PERKO-SPD-2-...#ht_3149wt_908 but after seeing your fix I may just go that way instead.
