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...
