Hunter 25.5 Lake Travis, Austin TX
Just bought this boat and the previous owner put epoxy in the factory drains on the port and starboard sides of the stern cockpit because he said it was a "flawed" design and didn't drain well. He cut a hole in the center of the stern wall and it is too high to drain, so there is always water in the cockpit.

We just had a huge rain and we came out to find a lot of water in the bottom of the boat that had leaked in the aft berth...doesn't appear to be from the vent window/port hole but from that area.

Has anyone else had a problem with the factory drainage in this boat? I am thinking about reopening the holes he covered up.
