My 35/3 does also. I enlarged it to 1/2 inch diameter. Then I had the gel
oat repaired.

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:
