Default Re: New scuppers for me at least.

Hey guys. I still have my Sea Drive (and Vic your story is making me nervous) and the scuppers drain directly into the bilge, not out of the boat. The Sea Drive is not set up as a self bailing deck. This is the original setup. So when the deck fills with water from rain or washing, the water runs into the scuppers onto the shelves where the batteries and oil tank are located and then though a cutout on the lip of each shelf into the bilge. There are no holes in the hull to make the deck self bailing, everything goes into the bilge. Also, I am now anxious to check when I take the shrink wrap off in a couple more weeks, to confirm that my mid-cockpit fish box drains directly into the bilge and is freely passing through cutouts in the bulkheads to the stern where it is pumped out with the bilge pump and that my baitwell (in the deck aft of the fish box), when not pumped out with its own pump through a thru hull fitting on the starboard side, drains the same way as my fish box. My decks are SOLID (I'm getting defensive).
