Okay, it's raining today so the end of winter must be getting closer. Thanks to Tim L. we've solved our scupper problem, it was so simple I'm embarassed I didn't think of it myself. Now what I'm looking for is general imput from all of you captains out there with factory installed scuppers. What is the measurment from the stern to the location of your scupper AND what is the measurement from the stern to where the water actually pools? General consensus will be where I'll cut the hole being I willn't (nice huh)float the boat before scupper installation takes place. Thanks in advance, Tony G
