Default Re: 18 Sport

out of all the boats i've looked at recently, and ones i've been working on or discusing( see classicseacraft.com) scuppers seem to be one of the most talked about subject, but I haven't seen a factory boat other than a big sport fish that has scuppers that actually work, there are lots of boats out there that the scuppers look like they should be OK, but once loaded and in the water, they are right at the water line. I've allways wondered just how efective a pair of standard 3/4" scuppers would be if you took a wave over the bow, after you add the weight of the water, your scuppers would probably be several inches below the water line, you would have to keep the boat moving fwd for it to drain. I don't like the scupper set up in my v-20, and plan to change them to bigger thru hulls with direct overboard drains rather than draining to the motorwell. What's ya'lls opinion on this
