Title: Bilge Water
Post by: captbob57 on March 24, 2019, 06:34:00 AM
Hello,
Just wondering after a good day of sailing and your PC is back on it's trailer and you remove the drain plug, how much bilge water comes out if any? I have not had my PC out yet and just wondering what to expect. Thanks!

We're bone dry after a sail. She's berthed in a garage, so weather isn't an issue either.

usually dry, can't remember finding any water, but keep checking anyway.

Never seen any after sailing.  When she was in an uncovered slip I used to have to sponge out the bilges, but that came from leaky hatches and the mast stub (that the original sail cover did not cover over).

Good to hear everyone is nice and dry after a good sail! Thanks for your input.
