    Hello...

    Aside from drilling holes and using proper stainless fasteners and goop for an off the shelf deck drain - I was wondering what you all thought about making same out of 1/4 inch Plexi so that it will sit proud of the deck - and maybe I could just use some 3M double sided sticky tape to fasten this to my 4 million dollar yacht - what thoughts...

    Sounds great Sean, I'd like a picture so I can fully appreciate the sitting proud of the deck part. All the best in your endeavours from Jeff

    Its been done mate! Its biggest success was the mother in law skating overboard at speed in rough weather and high winds.

    Of course, I only put a small 8x4 section outside her cabin door ....
