No reason it shouldn't.
In fact, I may run a rubber stopper plug in my anchor locker from now on as normal practice.
Since 95% of the time I'm not anchoring anyway, why let all that water get shoved into the locker and soak all my line?

Those seem way too clean and efficient. Take your modern-age ideas and get outta here!
...I may do that myself come to think of it.

Yesterday was the first day I have taken out actually. At least in the intracoastal and where any waves reached the anchor drain. The tube and the silicone kept all the water out. Not a drop in the changing station.

 

[Atlas135]

You bought that tube from iboats? Dry is kinda what im shooting for...lol

 

[Grover70]

I actually brought the anchor locker nozzle to the hardware store and matched the diameter of the nozzle to a piece of flexible clear tubing. They matched exactly. I put the nozzle back in the anchor locker drain, pushed the tube in from the anchor locker side with some silicone along the inside of the boat hull. Once it was seated I placed more silicone along the interior of the hull and voila! No more leaks into the hull.

Not nstalled yet, though I like the stopper idea.
