Scupper Help

[Jacquestrappe]

Having lurked on this site for 5 years as I searched for my dream 23' CC, I finally found the right boat and cut a deal last fall. (1975 23' CC) Finally, after months of upgrades and work, I splashed the boat this afternoon for my first shake-down run. Needless to say, I was very excited. New engine (250 Etec),new electronics etc.

Everything went great but I am a little concerned about the position of the scuppers. (which, from what I gather, is fairly common with this era) At its slip without anyone in the stern, the (port and starboard) scuppers are just above the waterline. If you stand in the stern, however, they will dunk (slightly)

For peice of mind, I would like to add in a flap-type scupper or a ping-pong ball scupper...but I'm hoping to get your opinions. I am having the boat pulled next week to look at something else so when its out, I'd like to address that as well.

Please let me know what you suggest in terms of what I should use. I really appreciate your help.

Best,
RC
