Quite common for more than one person on board, even for us M17ers . . . In safe conditions you can cork the drains to keep your feet dry: Some might advise against this approach, however . . . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Pavuk" <mcpavuk@worldnet.att.net> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 7:42 PM Subject: M_Boats: cockpit drain Is it normal to have water entering the cockpit from the drain? We sailed today and had a wonderful time - the only problem was a bit of water getting splashed up and getting our feet and the main sheet wet. I assumed self-bailing was a one way street somehow. Are we missing something? Cherri, M-15 # 322 _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats
