M_Boats: Re: M17 Cockpit water

I, too, had the problem of water coming back in through the scuppers. I found an easy solution. I bought a couple of corks at the local hardware store for about 79 cents that fit the two holes. I stick them in when I leave the mooring. If I ever take any serious water into the cockpit I can kick them out with a flick of my toe -- but a Montgomery is so dry that has never been an issue.
