I notice it's been a little slow in the Prairie forum. I've have a question I've been meaning to ask.
On my Prairie 36, there are scuppers through the bulwarks along both quarters. These allow water to drain from the narrow side decks.
I have two. They each run down and out through a PVC pipe, maybe 1.5" in diameter.
It looks for all the world like there should be a third scupper, halfway between the one just aft of midship, and the one near the transom. That's where the water collects, and there's even a pattern in the non-skid deck paint which suggests there either was one there once and it was filled in, or the original mold had a place for one that was never installed.
So, the question is, how many scuppers do YOU have?
Follow up: are they just small 1-2" holes or larger, like hawse holes?
