Hey Ted since you deal so much with the 28 Berts how have you addressed the drain holes for the hatches. Mine aren't tight or leak proof and I am looking at trying to replace them since I am redoing the paint. I have seen some deck drains in Westmarine but I think the smallest they have is 5/8" and then you have the lip around it. I haven't seen one in the store but I don't think I have enough room for it to fit. I thought about flaring a piece of copper and then trying to thread it to put a nut on it to make it fit snug. Any suggestions?

Hahahaha.. I have battled that for a while!!..
our boat we have, I fished on it with the family that owned it before. I got really tired of the hatches filling up the boat with water so I installed a rule shower / grey water pump out box and attached it to the rudder plate in the back. it has its own float switch and a bunch of inlets and has a strainer built in.. in my conversions I run a thick walled pvc conduit and epoxy glass fittings to the hatch wells. I just hate having salt water in the bilge. there were some guys talking about the shaft seals also...get them and the rudder seals..

Thanks Ted. That sounds like a good idea to try. I like the shaft seals and it probably won't be done this year but it is on my list to get done. I was hoping Capt. Jay would post some pics of his install so I could know how big of a job or a pain it will be.
