Do you mean drilling a hole in the bilge next to the keel????? My Monty doesn't allow water below at all. I do run a fan all the time inside to keep the air moving. My boat spent most of last year on her trailer also for the same reason. On Sun, Jun 27, 2021 at 11:33 AM Sailing Spark <arthaberland@gmail.com> wrote:
Like I am sure many of you do, my M17 spends the winter on her trailer (she's actually been on her trailer for over a year now thanks to the pandemic) and I was considering a garboard drain to keep water from pooling inside while she is stored.
I had one in my old SeaSprite 23 with it's long and deep keel, it did a good job of keeping any water that got past the companionway from filling up the bilge and I was considering doing this to the Monty as well.
Has anybody done so?
