Solars S250 scupper drain plugged

The port drain is plugged. Tried a snake from inside and outside. No success
Port side. Is there a way to access the stern without removing the house batteries?

Did you ever figure this out? I was washing my boat yesterday for the final time before hauling it out for the winter and noticed the same when I opened the starboard hatch - the soapy water wasn't draining on that side (starboard was fine). I shoved a rag in the drain on the forward side of that hatch and then sprayed a hose down the one astern, but it didn't seem to do much.

Yep. They didn’t cut right through the stern. Had to open it up, used a screw driver, and clean it out.
Big job as have to remove the batteries to get access.
Thought it was a one off.

I imagine the drains on the Solara are the same as the Ranger Tug line up... if so this may help to keep drains clear... https://simpleonboardsolutions.com/products/scupper-flusher

This looks perfect. I'll go measure tomorrow. What should the inner diameter be on those scupper drains in the hatch if they're the same? FWIW, in the video they do indeed look exactly the same.

1.5” diameter drains
🙂

OK, great - same size!

I also just noticed that the link was to your own site - that's great. I use o-ring clamps for my shore power cable and it's kind of a pain to unscrew them at the end of each season to remove the cord. Do those holders you sell fit the standard size shorepower cord? And if so, will they hold the cord if mounted on the face of the dock rather than running atop it? That is, I run my shore power on the "inside" of the dock and finger pier so that nobody trips on it.

Thanks!

The shore power cable clamps fit the 'standard' 30 Amp power cord that is around 5/8" in diameter. (Thanks for pointing that out, I'll need to update the description). They hold the cable securely enough that it could be mounted on the side or even upside down - although in both situations the cable will sag / drop in between the clamps, so you might want to increase the clamp interval for it to look nice 🙂 . There's a video on the page that shows the cable being removed and you can see how well they hold the cable. Feel free to direct message or reach out through the contact page!
