I Have a supra comp ts6m trying to find out what to use for the drain that goes through the bolt in plastic pan for drives foot area?
It had a chromed aluminum pc of pipe don't know if that's original? The battery has a rubber hose.

The last pan I installed I didn't put the hole in it at all . It just dumps the water on the back side of the stringer. If you are a good driver you shouldn't get water there . If you do a towel works well to remove it.

Thanks for the reply. Still a little confused. Dumps down in the bilge through the stringer? I guess your talking about water getting there from dipping the nose? I was thinking the water that drips off you or off the driver. I did some stinger repair and plugged the hole and made a new box for the pan and some floor repair. I was thinking about not using the pan since it is pretty damaged was to maybe use the front of the pan because I think that hump keeps the gear up in the nose? Thinking about running the carpet down the sides and putting a pc of teak in the bottom. Please let me know of any suggestion you may have or even where to find a new pan. Definitely a newbie here.

For what its worth I have original pan and it has a small drain hole in one corner that allows water
to end up in bilge area.
That said I always lay an old towel in the pan simply to keep my feet dry and the pan as well. Done this for years.

Since when? I was able to get a brand new one from Skiers Choice a few years back when I did my restoration. Anyway, I did not drill a hole in the pan and just use it as a tray to trap what little water ends up there to soak up with towels.

My dealer pugged that hole before took the boat home. He said it was a stupid idea that would lead to premature stringer rot. There's always a towel somewhere in the boat.

I bought one when I did the 84 comp . Someone posted they are no longer available ? I haven't needed once so I never verified.
