I have two 6" ports and two 3.5" ports that I would like to install on my SP. Yes, yes, I know it's a bit overkill, but I'm looking to make use of a lot of storage and also to do some extreme drying out of this old boat.
I've been debating about locations to put them, since I haven't been able to find any diagrams showing where Super Porpoises have extra deck supports/flotation blocks.
I'm considering putting two 6" in front of the splashguard, and to each side. I'd like to put the 3.5"s behind the cockpit to each side, or perhaps, one in the cockpit facing forward or reverse.
I've heard that putting the port directly in the center of the stern isn't a good idea on a SP, as there is a large amount of support about 6" wide that is best left alone.
Any advice?
Once I get these ports done, a little bit of deck paint and a lot of drying out, and my refurbishment should be done!
