The transom of the Glasspar I am restoring has a hole as the bilge drain, but it is simply a hole in the plywood. I'd like to purchase a transom drain tube. I found one at West Maine that has an outside diameter of an 1" 1/8. However, the hole in my boat is 3/4". So, I either need to bore out the hole or find one that fits the existing hole. I suppose my options are:
1. Bore out the hole - what is the best way to do that, because that doesn't sound as easy as it sounds?
2. Find one that is 3/4" in diameter - who sells one that size?
3. Make one out of plastic components from Home Depot - is that a reasonable option?
Your input is greatly appreciated.
