Almost an exact copy of the original, except the screw in part is brass.

$1.29 for the elbow, $18.00 for the brass part.

Great find Randleman, and I cant believe you found them at True Value. Thats the only place I never bothered to check. Expect to see some install pics.
I still prefer the ball drain to prevent water from coming in.

The elbow was at True Value @ Holden Beach, the brass part was @ a plumbing supply place in Greensboro.

I have a theory on the install, I am going to cut the drain so that the elbow is what screws tight against the floor instead of having the nut, then elbow.

This should put the elbow outlet about 1" to 1.5"s higher. *Maybe that will be enough to stop the water from comming in as much. *

If that doesn't do it, I found a fitting during my search that would mount on the wall of the cockpit instead of the floor, I might try them this winter.

Using these you could run the drain into the splashwell, or out the back of the transom above the waterline.
