 Does anyone know if  there is a drain on the last step in the cockpit? Mine fills up with water and goes behind the console where the gauges are.
Thanks

    On my 310 it is behind the helm where the cabin door slides in.

    I have the same at @Pat310 and it drains out to the starboard side via a throughhull.

    OK thanks. I am thinking mine is plugged. I have three  drains in that area. One for shower one for mid bilge and then one for steps. So I don't have to fill bilge would you happen to know which is which? Thanks again

    The one circled in red should be door drain. The one below is shower. The one to the right is bathroom sink on my 310

    Stick your hose into the drain and blow it out

    Thanks Pat and Ian. This hasn't been on the top of my list but was a concern for holding water. I finally got to it yesterday. I shot water up through the hull fitting (you pointed out)and it pushed out some crud out. I stuck a vacuum to get it out of there. It does drain now but still might be a little slow. How fast does yours drain ? 
    Thanks again

    It drains at a decent rate like the sink does. Get your hose with a small nozzle and see if you can drop it into the drain and hold there - zip tie to a boat hook. Have someone turn it on and flush out.

    The drain hole on the deck is behind the dash board. I couldn't figure out any way to get to it. I forgot mention I put the wet dry vac against the through hull fitting and it sucked the water through. I will probably monitor it for now. When we get a younger crew we get a lot of traffic jumping off the bow and that's when the step would fill up. Time will tell. 
    Thanks again.
