new transom scuppers and garmin wire

[DSW]

Hi,
I decided to re bed everything on the transom of my 1997 2110. After reading about others replacing their scuppers after 20 years i figured it was time. I also fixed the way the Garmin transducer wire was run.

New brass scuppers. New scupper flaps. Took out and re bedded the stern plug. Took off the Garmin Transducer and re bedded the mount and wire tie downs. Its been a late start this year and the boats been out of the water for 10 months and all the holes were dry on the inside. Used penetrating epoxy in all the holes and bedded the hardware with 4200.

The Garmin transducer wire was run though the brass cockpit scupper and when I got the boat the previous install had just cut the rubber flap to make room for the wire. Not a great solution but better then another hole in the transom. When I took off the transducer mount there was one unused hole that needed filled with epoxy.

Here's transducer mount holes after I first filled them with epoxy. The middle top one was not being used and needed sealing.

Here's the new way for the wire to run on a trail fit. I made a nylon backing plate for the scupper and cut out a path for the wire, so the scupper flap could close like it's supposed to.

And here it is finished. Wire out the side, water out the scupper.

Neat . Does wire run through the tube and exit on deck?

Hi,
The wire runs inside the brass scupper to the aft deck, and right there is all the engine wires and hoses. So the it's a short distance to run the Garmin wire in the plastic 'gasket' with all the other rigging, and then fish it amidships to the helm.
