I have the original sized hole (and original gel coat). I have no problems with it getting plugged, but it's not right at the bottom of the locker, so I end up with a puddle. I've been thinking about dry deck for a while, especially with new rode last year. It may be time to cross an easy project off the list.
Now if only I could get my hands on the boat (repairs are still under way). Lots of jobs getting done round the house though...
