I sailed out the Golden Gate in a friend's Tayana 37, and steep 10' waves right out the gate were a definite wake-up call for me.
My E29 (tiller model) has only one small drain in the cockpit; not nearly enough.
I'm considering cutting one or two fairly large drains through the transom.
Does anyone have any advice on this project:
* One drain or two?
* Size of drains?
* Where exactly to locate them?
* How should they be constructed?
* Should I add a flap to keep water from washing in through these holes?
* Any other ideas?
Also... I'm considering temporarily "gluing" one of my hatchboards in place. What's best to temporarily secure something in place?
Thanks!
