Transom tubes

[John (Guest)]

I am thinking of putting tubes or tunnels through the aft tank of my baggy to assist with drainage in the same way that the fireballs now do, is this legal? and if so is there a maximum size?

Personally I wouldn't bother!
Never got them to work and I have three boats with full rear tanks and I don't intend altering any of them.
Just don't fall in! P

Paul not all of us have a choice whether we fall in or not!
John to answer your question there is no problem putting tunnels or tubes through the rear tank although I am inclined to agree with Paul that they are unlikely to be of much help if you have the low rear tank that most baggies have if they have a rear tank. I had a crusader with a rear tank and found I could clear enough water out over the top of it and get the rest out through the self-bailers. I got plenty of practise.
