“If connected properly, your cockpit port scupper hose should exit on the starboard side and the cockpit starboard scupper exit on the port side. When the boat is heeled, they shouldn't fill up” Originally, the scuppers were not cross-connected (I know that many believe they should), but this is not how they came from the factory. But even when the rail was in water the cockpit never flooded.
On 24 the mast is deck stepped, so no water comes down the mast. If the cockpit water goes into the bilge, the chances are that the scupper hoses are leaking. If they leak under the cockpit, the water will eventually find its way into the bilge in the cabin. The 24 does not have an automatic bilge pump. There was a manual one that had to be put in place (the OEM arrangement was that you replaced the companionway step with a board with the pump attached). Marek
