There "should" be a drain hole at the very front of the anchor locker floor that goes down out the bow, more or less perpendicular to the surface of the bow at that point. Can you see any evidence that there may have been a drain hole present at some point? It is not a large diameter hole when present, and will not prevent locker flooding with a poorly sealed door and a lot of water coming on deck. I thought that boats equipped with a chain/rode locker only (hawse pipe instead of door) had drains that went into the bilge. My bet is that there was some sort of provision for drainage originally.

My anchor locker does not have a drain, so wet rode will either stew in its juices, or the water finds its way into the bilge through limber holes. What is the list experience in this case? ALEX GIANNELIA CC 35-II (1974) WILL BE RENAMED ON THE HARD SINCE NOV. 2006 Toronto Ontario
