My boat has scuppers, just above the waterline. When I get several
big guys in the back, the flaps don't close tight enough to make a complete
seal, so I get some water coming in. Also, had the rear bilge fail last
year and once the rainwater filled that up enough to weigh the boat
down, water came in as well. Darn near had a major problem.
Anyway, I thinking of blocking the scuppers and going with a second
rear bilge. Looking for a thin material to replace the flaps with that
would seal, and also stand up to sun and water.
Any ideas?
