Every year during winterization, I pull the anchor rode and coil it into a 5-gal bucket, and then flush the anchor locker with a garden hose. As long as I have the bow high enough so that water runs to the back, the water runs the full lenght of the boat and out the drain in the transom. Someone will have to confirm that this is the case with the 23 hull also. |
