2120 sleeping on boat in the rain problem?

[scalywag05]

Just made it back into the slip on Sunday afternoon when the skies opened up. My lady friend and I decided to take a little nap and let it pass. I hooked up the hose to flush the
Motor and we layed down in the berth for 10 minutes. when I decided to get up and secure the water to the motor I noticed the self bailing cockpit was no longer self bailing with the two of us (approx 340 lbs combined) laying in the berth. Kinda upsetting to know that water may be coming into the cabin in the middle of the night while we sleep.......

When 2 sleeping in cabin in the rain do this. Put engine down so that it is in running position it helps balance so rain will run off decks.

After nap, checking that scuppers are clear

Always have to have good flow through the scuppers or whats the point!
