1800 rear box drains

[Fishaddict]

Hi everybody
I noticed that newer 1800-01 Parker have drains in their rear boxes into bilge. Mine does not! and water has no chance to escape. Can any of you give me more or less exact location of the center of the drain. I plan to cut out 1 '' hole and after epoxying the edges to put bronze flanged fitting similar to scupper with 5200. Any thoughts ?

I have a 2001 - 1801. Did you cut scups into your boat yet? If not i can take a few photos of the location of mine.

I bought 1'' bronze flanged drain pipes and was planning to do it today. Your pictures would help.

sorry , but my boat is not here today, getting re-powered, hope to get her back this week. this photo will show u the scup in the lower left corner. it is right above the halfway line when the boat sits in the water (a little higher is bester that way when you way yo back of boat it's not too low). sorry I could not help today with a pic... u can buy the rear scup one way valves.

look up "Scuppers one way rubber flaps"
