The tiny drains installed in the sill channel under the lazarette hatch on my 1982 KK 42 often get overwhelmed during heavy rains causing the sill to fill and water to drain into the lazarette and ultimately bilge.
Any suggestions on resolving this issue?
The sill is very narrow and won't easily accommodate large drains and so I was thinking about fitting a rubber bulb seal in the channel to restrict any water collection to the gap around the perimeter of the lazarette. I don't think this will seal the lazarette but it isn't sealed now and would likely reduce water entry into th lazarette.
