Cockpit Floor Repairs - Water Drainage - NO WET SOCKS! (Patrick Childress Sailing #56)

We fix the drainage problem of our cockpit floor once and for all. We have wet feet with puddles right on the cockpit floor of our sailboat! , Water just sits in the front of the cockpit and it doesn’t drain. We demonstrate how to build a laminated foam core panel, like Coosa board, or a stress skin panel, to bring a new pitch or slant to the cockpit floor of our old sailboat, so that we will have no more wet socks. Now the cockpit sole will drain, and we will not have a cockpit drainage problem. Brick House...whether it be fresh or salt water, has always been a wet cockpit, with puddled water in the front of the cockpit floor with no way to run down to the cockpit drain in the back of the cockpit flooring. This boat repair will repair that problem by changing the pitch of the cockpit floor, and help with better cockpit floor drainage. Now with a newly fiberglassed foam core slanted panel fiberglassed to the floor, the cockpit can drain the water properly and we won’t have wet feet anymore, nor will the ship’s cat come “Nauti Coati” come in with a wet or dirty belly! Join us on Sailboat Brick House as we make modifications to the floor of the cockpit to direct water to the cockpit drains. Now the cockpit Sole will be high and dry. Now we can wear our socks in the cockpit without them getting all wet in the cockpit!
