[Alberg30] Thru Hulls

[George Dinwiddie]

You would need to make it a much larger through-hull, or the cockpit 
would never drain.  And you would need to figure out the flow to make 
sure that the various uses don't interfere with each other.  The 
blocked-off through-hulls would still be a point of failure unless you 
glassed over the holes.
