Most Whalers have drain(s) in the splashwell so the water runs out if the boat takes a wave over the back. I realize scuppers will let water out, but I don't understand why you would want to plug this area. It is a wet area no matter how you look at it using Scuppers or just drains.

I thought if I added a pair of scuppers (a plastic see through devise that has a loose tennis ball inside of it, which stops water from coming in and will allow water to come out.) to the holes, it would keep the area preety much dry.

Just as soon as I can figure out how to down load a picture. I'll post to site. No idea about a splash guard. Maybe if you post a new tread someone might give you good answer. Wish I could, sorry!

These 3 holes are to let water out if you take a wave over the boat.... Yes, they will let a little water in when not under way, but not much... Here is a photo of my Outrage 18 showing all 3 holes. 1 center of the transom and the other 2 outside of center. Joe Kriz attached the following image: [52.15Kb]
