The drains in those Beckson opening ports don't work all that well on my 35MKII... hope the slope is better on your 38...the exterior slope on my boat more than counteracts the slope on the port drains so until the residual water at the base of the opening ports dries up I always get a splash, which by now I have learned to catch with a chamois placed below the ports when I open them soon after a rain.

I've finally gotten around to replacing the 5x12 opening port in the head of my 38 with a new Beckson port that has drain spouts, designed for installation in sloped sides of the cabin. Hopefully that will end the splash collected rainwater into the head each time I open the port. The old Fuller Brush port is available to anyone who needs it for parts. The opening lens is crazed after 38 years of UV exposure. But the frame , seal, and trim ring are Ok. Screen is missing. I didn't mind the crazed lens so much because it was sort of like a translucent shower door and made a little privacy when tied alongside a dock in a Marina. Contact me off list and I can mail the old port to you.
