Getting ready to rip up the deck in my boat because the scuppers & deck are too low. (wet deck)
15 ft span I have 4 inches drop for pitch so water runs to stern.
Going to raise deck and loose a bit of the pitch
Trying to determine how many degrees I have now and how many I want as it sits in the water now.
Want to raise scuppers 5 inches
Tired of a wet deck and having to wear boots everyday !
