Jacob; agree with all of the other posts...however, do drop that
traveler...these boats do much better sailed flat (under 10 degrees)....!

‘78 36- With some pretty good heel I get water backing up in the cockpit from
the low side drain (drains are below water line). Ok maybe I should drop the
traveler.. but that aside I’m wondering if the drain hoses should be crossed to
the opposite seacock. That would eliminate this but assuming my hose
orientation is original there may have been a reason not too.
Second part is I’m considering adding a port and starboard deck drain. Would
need to be small diameter flange. Has anyone done this? Where do you drain to?
I’m doing the wick trick which works great but I find it unsightly and it
causes growth and interferes with cleaning yada yada…
Anyway I’ll probably change nothing but I’m out of the water looking for more
work to do.. maybe I should stop before making things worse!
