I have used natural sponge cut & inserted in strategic spots for nearly 20 years.  Really works well.  Never tried the rope.

Christian,

 

Water pooling on the side decks is an issue, along with the black streaks that seem to radiate from the toe rail.  I have seen others use small pieces of sponge or cotton rope to let the water wick over the side.  I would certainly try this before cutting into the toe rail.  Give it a shot.

Hello everybody,

 

I am going to rebed my deck hardware. When I do I'm thinking of rebedding the toe rail. Has anybody cut drain points into it so the water drains out. I was even thinking of cutting 1/8" plastic strips and in a couple of places "Lifting up" the toe rail to create a path for the water to drain. 

 

I get puddles aft on both sides of the cockpit. 

 

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
