[Public-list] crossing the atlantic

[Todd]

Hi David,

How do you plan to get rid of the deck (scupper) drains?  I got rid of the
hose that connects them to the cockpit drains when I enlarged my cockpit
drains to 2".  I plan to reroute the drains to the bilge pump drain that
drains above the waterline on the port side of my boat.  I was going to get
this done in the next week or two but would like to hear other ideas before
cutting things apart.

Quite the silliest thing I've ever seen on a boat is deck drains, and mine
has them.  Why anyone would even consider shedding water from the deck via a
hose, with all its inherent problems, through the INSIDE of a boat is
completely beyond me.  So they're to go.  

Quite the harangue, but my point is this:  The Alberg is a fine offshore 
boat.
