New Member/ Scupper Question

JK some of the V's were worse than others in the eighties versions. It came down to which power plant was hung on the rear end (weight) as far as I could see. Relocating some weight forward may help. In line check ball systems can work also, Hammer installed them, biggest problem with them is they can get clogged faily easy so they have to be watched.
What worked best for me was to use the plugs, the kind that you use to plug your garber drain outsiede the boat. Mine had the fold down little handle than tightened the plug in the hole the last bit after you adjusted them to fit.
A couple of suggestions though. Dont forget them, if you keep your boat in the water you want those plugs out so the cockpit can drain or you can scuttle her in a bad storm or at least cause bad damage especially if your battery/bildge pump finally runs out of juice.
Also if you are moving you should pull at least one ( takes just a second) so that deck splash can drain out.
****And if you are moving thru rough water, like tough inlets, big waves, storm situations make sure those puppies are open for your safety as that is the only way to clear your boat of sea water. ***
