Thats purty. How many inches of the back of the boat are in the water. At the rear corner from top of water to chine?

Very nice Paul!!! I'm betting the Dusky in the background "is green with envy" to even be in the same marina as your SeaCraft. Sorry....I couldn't help it.

I'm guessing that the "T" is to drain the boxes in the stern?

Transon Boxes & Rod Holders = NO water in the bilge

I have a 2001 SeaCraft20. I am thinking about adding scuppers above the waterline and above the floor so that water would run out if I got alot of water in the boat. The scuppers I have are self bailing but water does not leave very fast unless one is going forward, which may be tough to do if the boat was in the situation where there was alot of water in the boat. A consideration would be that if there was alot of water in the boat, would the scuppers then be under water and rendered useless? Any thoughts? These would really be emergency scuppers. Thanks for your input.

I am thinking of adding above the waterline scuppers to get rid of water should I ever have several inches in the boat.With the scuppers I have( 2001SeaCraft20) the boat must be moving forward to get the water out with any kind of speed. AM I better off w a pump on the floor? I don't think it is as straight forward on the 20 as it is with the 23.

So you want to add scuppers above the deck to drain faster when there is allot of water, sort of like an overflow.

If you're not draining fast enough and you think it might me dangerous, enlarge your current scuppers to let more water through. The bigger the hole more water drains out.
