Water ponds in the area of the photo on both sides of the boat. I worry water sits up against the wood cap at times.The boat seems to sit level in the water. Does anyone have this issue?
of course We all do ! I installed a Small SS drain ( Marine Parts Depot ) a 2 inch drain one right where the water puddles the other end in on the cockpit wall about bottom of the wheel same bulkhead 4 inches from the cabin sole. Water goes in at the top and out the inside and flows to the cockpit drain. Its not perfect . But the water is gone now !
So my drain line 3/4 water hose goes down from the drain 2.5 feet and out the cockpit wall ! , I had outdoor speakers there so i temp removed them and had a 4 inch hole to work in !
My water on the Port side away from the sun would puddle and turn green ! Only 3 cups of water but i too resealed the cap rail in that area.
I found the low spot drilled a 5/16" hole and another one about 6" down on the hull. Flared a pece of 1/4" copper tubing slopped it with rtv and stuck it through the deck and out the hull.
Sounds like a hack jub but its worked for 40 years.
