[Rhodes22-list] Yet another cockpit drain question

[Michael D. Weisner]

Well it is and it isn't.  It depends on how the boat is sitting in the
water.  On a mooring with no passengers on board, the stern is usually out
of the water, unless you have a heavy engine and a battery in the lazarette,
in which case it is in the water.  When sailing with crew in the cockpit (a
couple of 200 pounders will do nicely), the drain is under water (you may
even see water come up the hose towards the cockpit).

So to answer your question, yes and no.

Help --- can anyone tell me whether the thru hull for the cockpit drain on
bottom of boat is below the water line? I have removed the old one and so am
deciding how to replace.  Thanks! Steve
