[Alberg30] Cockpit drains

[Mike Lehman]

Now here's a thought...on the newer style boats with the internal deck 
drains, I have give some thought each year to disconnecting them from the 
thru hull and redirecting them right out the side of the hull at the cove 
stripe. This would take some drainage pressure off of the cockpit drains, 
simplfy the plumbing below the cockpit behind the engine, and I think it 
could be done in a way that would make it hardly noticeable. This wat the 
common method on the Tartan 33, which is where I came up with the idea. Any 
thoughts? Anyone done this?

No the newer boat have the thru hull fittings in the same place as the older 
boats. The only difference is that the newr boat have two hoses to each thru 
hull, one from the cockpit and the other from the deck. I suppose that 
Whitby made this change so the deck water doesn't run down over the side of 
the hull thru exist in the toe rail to prevent the black steaks down the 
hull. The older method is more efficient for dispersing the water from the 
deck.

Mike,

Did the newer Alberg have the drains located above the waterline?

I don't think this a feasible idea.

The cockpit sole is about 10" above the water line, however where would you
place the thru hulls?
