Graham,
My boat has a drain hole that appears to be drilled right through solid
glass. It drains pretty well, but a little mat on the locker floor sounds
like a good idea.

Subject: Re: Stus-List keeping anchor rode dry
My previous boat had a mushroom through-hull fitting as the drain, which
meant 1/4" standing water usually. Previous owner made a wooden insert,
strangely the continual immersion didn't agree with it. To keep the rode
out I made an insert out of rubber snap-together mat material, trimmed to
shape. Worked great. I've been meaning to do the same for the C&C but it
has not gotten to the top of the list yet.
mat like this:
