The 321 sugar scoop is designed in such a way that the bottom lip rests in the water if the water tanks are empty or there is any significant weight in the stern. Here is a 321 I pulled from the internet -
There is a rubber rail that covers the edge that gets covered with growth if not moved through the water with relative frequency.
I want to raise the waterline for the bottom paint at the stern, but I don't think bottom paint will stick to the rubber rail cover. I have seen a few people with cats that look like that have painted over the rubber, but I am not sure.
Has anyone done anything with their 321 (or similar boat with a similar problem), or is this something that I just have to live with? I don't like to sail with the water tanks full unless I am going somewhere and I have moved everything I can from the back of the boat to the front.
