[Rhodes22-list] Forward Seat Drains

[Wally Buck]

Brad,

I guess you could just let it drain onto the cockpit floor. But then again 
if your bow heavy the water will just build up on the cockpit floor rather 
than the bench....

Of course you could adjust ballast by adding a 50hp motor or perhaps a 
generator ....
