Hello everyone. I just begin working on my 1st boat and found this forum. I have found so much information on here, its a great site!
I am curious about something though and I cannot find a definitive answer. I have a 1992 Wellcraft Excel 20SX. During the cleaning I noticed that water was pooling in the rear compartments, the one where the battery is stored. I am wondering why there is no drain in there. I also have a floor replacement coming up and if installing drains there would be a wise idea I will, but my biggest concern is making the section weaker. I would think that a drain in all compartments that could catch water would be a good idea. What do you all think? I know the boat wasn't designed with one there and there is probably a good reason for that. But would installing one be considered an upgrade or improvement?
Thanks again guys!
